Jerramungup, WA


Ratings: CP ** Surroundings *


An array of honey eaters waiting for us to fill the bird bath on a very hot day: New Holland, Brown and Brown- Headed honeyeaters. We stayed at the small town of Jerramungup on our way to Bremer Bay. The town was established for returning servicemen who were given land there in the 1950s. The Aboriginal name apparently translates to "the place of upstanding yate trees" which are a type of eucalypt.
