The rain becomes heavier and thunder is rolling all around us while the temperature drops and wind picks up.<\/p>\n<p>We turn off for Lake Jasper, what a difference some rain makes.

About 10.30am another car pulls in and again don?t look happy that the best spot was taken ? they leave.<\/p>\n<p>Although the cool weather is welcome we had come prepared to take a dip thinking it would be hotter than it was, oh well next time. We spend the rest of day relaxing, reading and go for another walk hoping to get some photos of the local bird life but we only manage a purple swamphen and a beetle. Not sure if it?s the time of the year but we don?t see much bird life, only an occasional purple swamphen and one fantail that visited our camp twice but no photo. We could hear kookaburras, cockies and 28?s but no sightings.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-8 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-8' class='gallery galleryid-641 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/index.php\/lake-jasper-black-point\/2015lj_d2-01\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/wp-pictures\/uploads\/2015\/02\/2015LJ_d2-01-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Purple swamphen\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-8-655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/wp-pictures\/uploads\/2015\/02\/2015LJ_d2-01-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/wp-pictures\/uploads\/2015\/02\/2015LJ_d2-01-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-8-655'>\n\t\t\t\tPurple swamphen\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/index.php\/lake-jasper-black-point\/2015lj_d2-02\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/wp-pictures\/uploads\/2015\/02\/2015LJ_d2-02-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Red legged weevil\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-8-656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/wp-pictures\/uploads\/2015\/02\/2015LJ_d2-02-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ourtraveldiaries.com\/wp-pictures\/uploads\/2015\/02\/2015LJ_d2-02-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-8-656'>\n\t\t\t\tRed legged weevil\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>We try out the panoramic feature on our new camera taking some shots of the lake.
