At Stingray Bay in Warrnambool there are two small islands, Merri Island and Middle Island. These two islands are home to Little Penguins whose numbers have been diminishing due to attacks by foxes. Since 2006 Italian Maremma Guardian Dogs have been used to protect the penguins and other birdlife. The penguin numbers are now increasing. Sound familiar? Well the movie ‘Oddball’ was based on the work of these amazing dogs.
Great post 😁

This is where I go to put my feet on the sand or in the sea after work whenever I can. It’s a magnificent little spot when the tide is out – dangerous when it’s in, though.
