On our way back to the Pinnacles we stopped at Lake Thetis to see if we could catch a Stromatolite if we were fast enough!
They we in the same spot that they had been for the past 3,500 years! Just juniors as some are over
3,400 million years old.
It was a friendly microbial community but one was aware that they are descendants of the earliest life form on earth
A few pictures tell the story
This was one of our favourite stromatolites
Gail liked posing with these characters. They make her look so young!
The Stromatolites said that they liked posing with Rob as they don't meet too many contemporaries!
We are looking forward to a return visit when they mature

They look like something you'd find in The Bog Of Eternal Stench! :-)
