Candlebark Walk Reserve, Croydon Hills

These pix were taken on June 18 2013 in the Candlebark Walk Reserve, Croydon Hills.
 

This was a 3 km circuit hike, starting at the Yarrunga Community Centre on Croydon Hills Drive
 
The lakes were originally dams, part of former orchards, dating from the 1880s.
 

In earlier days the bushland surrounding this area abounded with wild flowers, including numerous orchids, pink wild Boronia, Clematis, pink and white Heath.
 

The water birds still enjoy the area around Yarrunga Reserve and the Community Centre!
