         		 Another day of back-breaking effort dawns on the shearing shed at the small family farm of Greyholme in North West New South Wales.

         		 The Cicada is most probably the most iconic and common sight in Australia in the summertime, male Cicadas have loud noisemakers called 'tymbals' on the side of the abdominal base, which lets off a clicking type noise also fondly known 'down under' as the Cicada's Song. They live underground as nymphs for most of their lives before constructing an exit tunnel to the surface to emerge as adults, molting (shedding) their skin leaving behind an exoskeleton (shell) that commonly clings to bark and trees all over Australia.: by jodieheasman33, Views[717]
         		 These strange crescent shaped objects are often mistaken for jellyfish and as a child most Australian kids will remember picking them up, or squishing them between our toes as they do not sting and are absolutely everywhere there is water. These clear, wobbly jellyfish looking things are actually the egg sac from the conical sand snail each containing hundreds of snail eggs. This lone egg sac caught my eye as the sun was setting over the bay as it is very rare to just find one on its own, it just seemed to be so content with the fact that it had prime position for the days sunset.: by jodieheasman33, Views[4685]
         		 A helpless elderly woman watches from her backyard overlooking St George's Basin as fire engulfs the sky above from a nearby bush fire, she told me it was expected given the extreme heat we'd experienced over the previous week but somehow I sensed that she was holding back a little on her response to a raging fire burning practically at her back door.: by jodieheasman33, Views[490]
     
    Jervis Bay flows into many creeks and inlets and while swimming in one I overheard some kids mention that a man had picked an octopus out of the water, so upon locating him and asking what he was doing he told me he was simply getting the octopus out of harms way as 'this is his swimming pool and you wouldn't like him swimming in yours now would you?!' as he carefully yet comfortably relocated the octopus to a less populated area of the creek.: by jodieheasman33, Views[539]
