I'll be posting other pictures from that walk. The number of unexpected things you spot when you get your camera home and really look at the photos is amazing...

There should be plenty of frogs but it's been so hot that the frogs have mostly retreated into the mud. These flowers are very fragrant, and even at midday I could smell their perfume coming off the water.
