lotus at Fogg Dam

This week will be flora from Darwin......I chose the theme because there were a few yellows that fit with Childhood Cancer Awareness Month - which is September.

Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve is located on the Adelaide River floodplain between Darwin and Kakadu and covers 1,569 hectares. The dam was created in 1956 to collect water to irrigate rice bays during the dry season for the Humpty Doo Rice Project. The project failed and left Fogg Dam as a great gift for the community.
Lotus lilies and grass islands feature in the water.

[Phil Howcroft]

@annied eek , Bliley, so you shot this through the window. What happens if you break down in your car (a mechanical issue rather than emotional ) ?

[Annie D]

@phil_howcroft ha ha you phone for help ....and if you do get out you keep an eye out and stay away from the edge
