			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve driven past this park many times over years as I&#8217;ve gone about my business or visited my family but it never occurred to me to visit it till this past week.</p>
<p>I knew it was reclaimed land that had been turned into a wetland reserve and this occurred sometime after 1994 when we&#8217;d shifted into this area.  But this week as I dropped into a business across the road from it I decided this would be my next planned photography shoot and I&#8217;m so glad I did.</p>
<p>Here are two links that tell you more about it:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.parkweb.vic.gov.au/1park_display.cfm?park=120">Parks Victoria</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.fisherandfisher.com.au/Karkarook.htm">Fisher &amp; Fisher</a></p>
<p>For the first time in my life I saw a Flame Robin and that was thanks to a couple who regularly walk their dogs there. They&#8217;d seen me taking pictures of the birds and they pointed me towards a path they&#8217;d walked on where they had seen the robin. So when I went looking it was very obvious as the bright colour showed up easily amongst all the greens and browns.</p>
