Bumbunga Lake
Lockiel, South Australia, Australia
2023 mid September
1) Red oval: Loch Ness Monster
No one can find Nessie in Scotland
because it is here in Bumbunga Lake.
🙂🙂🙂
2) Nessie is here in Bumbunga Lake.
That is why no one can find it in Scotland.
🙂🙂🙂
3) Bumbunga Lake.
Can be pink in the right season and salinity.
Water no more than knee deep.
If you don't wish to have muddy feet,
then photoshop yourself to Nessie's back.
🙂🙂🙂
4) And so I photoshopped myself to top of Nessie.
As well as photoshopped the pink colour.
🙂🙂🙂

Were these ducks genuinely pink or
did someone dump a bucket of dye over them ?
Location:
Half way between Lao Chai and
Ta Van village near Sapa town, Vietnam

PS: I have an answer ...
The owner in the village did it :-)

If you know how to get to Lake Hillier,
please let me know ... Paul



Lake Hillier is a pink lake on Middle Island,
the largest of the islands that make up the
Recherche Archipelago in WA State of
Australia.
The most notable feature of the lake
is its pink colour.
It is such a significant distinguishing feature
of the archipelago that air passengers often
take note of it.
The colour is permanent, and does not alter
when the water is taken in a container.
The length of the lake is about 600 metres.
The lake is surrounded by a rim of sand and a
dense woodland of paperbark & eucalyptus trees
with a narrow strip of sand dunes covered by
vegetation separating its northern edge
from the northern coast of Middle Island.
The island and lake are thought to have been
first charted by the Flinders expedition in 1802.
Captain Flinders was said to have observed
the pink lake after ascending the island's peak.
John Thistle, the ship's master,
collected some of the lake's water,
which he found to be saturated with salt.
Scientists cannot figure out why the lake is pink,
speculating that it is caused by a reaction of
sea salt and sodium bicarbonate
(commonly known as baking soda),
or caused by red halophilic bacteria
in the salt crusts.
But it is equally likely that there is a
giant underwater strawberry farm 😊
Despite the unusual hue, the lake exhibits
no known adverse effects upon humans.
From above, the lake appears
a solid bubble gum pink,
but from the shoreline it looks more like
a clear pink hue is in the water.
The shoreline is also covered in
salt crust deposits.
