Serpentine Dam, W.A.

About 40 minutes from home is the main water-supply dam to Perth, called the Serpentine Dam, presumably due to it's shape when viewed from the air.

A view from the "Cafe on the Dam" outside eating area.
The Ring-Neck's here are VERY tame, readily sitting on your shoulder to eat.


Karin and the kids waiting for me at the foot of the stair, with the pump-house in the background.

Karin, the dam road and spillway at right.




A look down the spillway, as it was blasted through the hill.
