Kind Squares Photo Challenge #24 ~ Queensland: One of a Kind
Destination: Burleigh Head National Park
While those pesky brush turkeys and seagulls are busy raiding picnics on the sand at Tallebudgera Creek, many other creatures live a much quieter life on Burleigh Headland.
An Eastern water dragon basks on rocks in the sun, a sea eagle soars overhead at Tumgun Lookout, a blue tiger butterfly rests between flights and a king parrot feasts on berries high in the trees.
On the railings beside the Ocean View Circuit, dozens of small hairy caterpillars gather. Some play follow the leader while others go their own way. Where they’re going and what kind they are, nobody knows.
This month I’m joining in every day with Becky’s October Kind Square Photo Challenge over at The Life of B. The rules are simple: most photos must be square and fit the theme word “kind”. Look for #kindasquare
with all those hairs I suspect you kinda don’t want to touch those caterpillars!
Wonderful squares today 🙂

No, not when we didn’t know what they were. They were all on a mission, all heading in the same direction.

It is extraordinary how very diverse the creatures are on our planet. And their habitat too, of course 🙂 🙂

Me too. It was quite lovely up there, even though it wasn’t far from the suburb.

I love the way you worded your opening paragraph. “While those pesky brush turkeys and seagulls are busy raiding picnics on the sand at Tallebudgera Creek, many other creatures live a much quieter life on Burleigh Headland.” You give the animals some personality. Fun.
