Bomadery Creek walking : January 25 2025

Took the opportunity to get a lift into Nowra. We did the weekly shopping. My wife went off for her own shopping stuff and I ride the bike to North Nowra - do an orchid walk and ride back to Shoalhaven Heads

Cross the Shoalhaven River - view of the North bank up across the boat ramps

View to the south side where the new hospital building is getting taller - 6 stories - great views of the river from the top

Spied this mushroom - looks like golf ball on a tee

Into Bomadery Creek Regional Park seeking for midge orchid. I have GPS links for a few candidates - no luck for any of the target spots

Pink fan flower - only ever seen purple before

Cicada wrapped up in a spider web

Mushrooms on the track. Has been a bit of rain this week - not enough for puddles

Lambertia formosa

Yellow-rush lily

Saw this flash of red and spikes - just one flower. Remember seeing them above the river at Wisemans Ferry

Fan flower in the more normal purple form

Great spot for scribbly gums at this time of year before the sun gets to brown the exposed trunks

Track view - last time this was a creek

No luck on the orchids I was seeking - make do with last season seeded one - maybe bearded orchid

ID is easier for this one - spots on the pedicel - dipodium variegatum

Farewell scribbly gum

Stopped for lunch break at Bomadery Creek - quiet little park next to the boat ramp. Good looking fishing spot if one can avoid the ethanol plant behind and the smell of cooking wheat

Corn growing well. Context photo - corn leaning to the right in the wind and I am cycling left into said wind - was hard work

Completed the ride. Longest for the year. Good news is I did not have to stop up the little hill - been a while since I've been able to that in the heat

Dinner with friends - simple fare - scotch fillet and duck breasts with potato and salad. I cooked the protein - duck done in sous vide at 130F for 60 minutes - then seared. Next time - 120F. Skin side down to render the fat and crisp the skin

Turn over to brown the other side. Potato is a cheat - microwave a minute or two. Drizzle some olive oil and put on bbq grill. Get close yo meat cooking to get someone thos flavours across

All worked well
