What goes down, must go back up again.
Or something of the kind. For Becky’s squares it’s all up.
Surf’s up
view from higher up
At Waterfall Gully, above the first fall, although there was little water in the middle of Summer. We could see the people at the bottom of the falls.
It’s for Becky’s squares.
Jupiter and Saturn
“Skywatchers are in for a rare treat as Jupiter and Saturn come so close to each other they will almost look like a single shining planet in the sky.“

But the conjunction, which occurs about every 20 years, was so close they would appear almost as one bright planet. The last time that happened was about 400 years ago.
Fortunately for me, Australia was a good place to be looking for it, and even better the sky was clear when I heard the news and ran out with my phone.
It isn’t a good shot and may have been better after reading the post by Jez Braithwaite, but the title makes use of Becky’s ‘UP’ square criteria and it gives you an idea of what we could see with the naked eye. Clouds came in shortly after and the bright lights disappeared.
Pricking their ears up
Long after an eruption
For Becky’s ‘UP’ square, today, I’m featuring two views of the Undala lava tubes of Queensland; outside and inside the tubes.
The longest lava tubes in the world, they are formed (to give a lay explanation) when a huge mass of lava is on the move, but cooling as it runs. Subsequent lava flows add to it and run up the sides, eventually closing over the top to form a tube.
The last eruption was about 200 000 years ago.
Not so far from Cairns, they are well worth the visit.
Digging up trouble
One to three
It’s my first entry in the squirrel case’s blog, one to three. I took a photo of this piece of seaweed, which looked like a feather.

It’s probably not what you expected, though. This dragonfly was sunning itself on the lawn, and with its terminal abdominal appendages raised in the air, I thought of Becky’s ‘UP’ squares.
I think this one is a Southern Hawker, but I’m no expert.
