Elliston and more 2021 (around town)

Elliston has done much to attract families as visitors - murals, sculptures and more.

 

 

 

Elliston is sadly over-run with feral pigeons at the expense of other bird-life.

They are a real problem to residents and the district council, calling for programs of control and measured eradication.

 

A sunset for our last night at Elliston.

On Monday 24 May we travelled on to Elliston via Port Kenny and Venus Bay.

Our accommodation at Elliston - right on the esplanade overlooking Waterloo Bay - just right for the seaside experience we were seeking - first magnificently stormy weather, then finer days.
