A lovely place to bird in Colac is Lake Colac. It is opposite the Colac botanical gardens. I saw large numbers of pelicans and the occasional sandpiper/avocet. #localgem
Saint Andrews church in my home town of Colac, Victoria. The foundation stone was laid on the 10th April 1877 and was constructed of bluestone quarried at nearby Coragulac. St Andrew’s was officially opened for services on the 16th of December 1877.
