Tidbinbilla exploring with sisturD. Up camelback FT, a bit of Tidbinbilla Pk spur to find a pardalote nest/burrow with a male and female attending and feeding cheeping chicks. We were silent and still for about 20 minutes - an incredible lucky experience! Saw a bright orange furry animal streak through bush - possibly a fox?
Then back to car, cup of tea, Lyrebird trail then up the snowy corner spur. After not far sis called a lunch break by a big boulder. After lunch we didn't go much further up before she'd had enough and we returned to car. Back on Lyrebird trail we passed 2 yoga peeps carrying a basket and some kind of bundles of sticks(?) - it was Nandini/Celine and Kieran but they didn't recognise me.

easy walk with sis on Blackie. Up to circum, a lap, down. Saw an echidna!

Mt Ainslie. Tyson/hawdon via the labyrinth track to saddle, a chat with a delightful grandparent and 2 kids, then down. With Fred and Roux

Dogwalk to top of o'c ridge, down a different way.

Now that Roux dog is part of the team we abandon Black mtn for greyer pastures. Majura to saddle only. Gate/grid to saddle post in 21:07 on cool rainy day. New benchmark for the shorter majura when all the way to top is too long for lunch hour.

Tested a little running. Lower back has been appalling lately due to neglect. It looked and felt like running so it's good to keep my foot in.
