Stromatolites at Lake Thetis, Nambung National Park, Turquoise Coast, Western Australia, Sept 2011
Stromatolites at Lake Thetis, Nambung National Park, Turquoise Coast, Western Australia, Stromatolites, modern versions of Earth's most ancient life forms, date back 3,400 million years and are some of the oldest known fossils in the world. Colonies of cyanobacteria that build Stromatolites at Lake Thetis are similar to the earliest organisms to appear on Earth, that produced oxygen for subsequent life forms, including humans.

Cervantes Beach
Cervantes Beach WA
Cervantes - Western Australia
Cervantes is commonly used as a base for people who visit the Pinnacles located 17km south.
Like Lancelin, Cervantes is another cray fishing town and the population virtually doubles in the cray fishing season. (Note. The Western Rock Lobster is actually a crayfish but it was re-named for the American market to avoid confusion with the crawfish. These crayfish are naturally red unlike other species that only turn red when cooked.)
The town remains less developed than its larger neighbour Jurien but is a firm favourite with holiday makers from Perth who are looking for a place near the beach to relax and fish.
Nearby Lake Thetis is one of the few places you will find stromatolites in W.A. but in this area they are somewhat over-shadowed by the Pinnacles..

Lake Thetis and Stromatolites.
The lake is one of only a few places in the world with living marine stromatolites, or 'Living fossils'. The microbes that build stromatolites are a species of cyanobacteria and are similar to those found in 3500 , which are the earliest record of life on Earth. The lake's stromatolites that look like rocky lumps have been dated to about 3370 years old. Stromatolite communities grow as the this layer of bacteria on their surface deposit calcium, cementing sediment into bulbous structures. Blister mats of cyanobacteria can also be found growing on the margins of the lake in the flood zone. These mats are sensitive and easily disturbed.
The stromatolites are easily accessible during the drier months when the water level is at its lowest. The best examples can be found at the south-western edge of the shoreline but they are brittle and visitors are asked to look, but don.t touch.
Lake Thetis is isolated from major surface drainage and is fed by groundwater flow. The only loss of water comes from evaporation. It is a saline lake but there is no evidence to suggest the lake has a connection to the sea. The water level fluctuates around average sea level but doesn't appear to reflect tidal variations. The lake levels follow trends more closely related to the rainfall for the area.
The lake water is alkaline and nutrient poor but provides an ideal environment for bottom dwelling microbial communities. The lake contains some small fish, amphiods and a few crustacean species adapted to living in highly saline environments.
The circumference of the lake is only 1.2 kilometres and provides an interesting and enjoyable walk. Please stay on the path provided. Enjoy an easy 1.5km loop walk around Lake Thetis and gain an insight into what life was like at the dawn of time.
The rock-like structures on the edge of Lake Thetis are built by micro-organisms too small for the human eye to see. Within the structures are living communities of diverse inhabitants with population densities of 3000 per square metre!
The thrombolite-building micro-organisms of Lake Thetis resemble the earliest forms of life on Earth. The discovery of modern examples helped scientists to understand the significance of micro-organisms in the environment and unravel the long history of life on Earth. Today living examples of these once completely dominant organisms are restricted to only a few places.

Rallystang at Lake Thetis (music video)
In my latest music video, the Rallystang catches some air and kicks up some sand. Not sure if I'm channelling Steve McQueen, Lightning McQueen, the Queen of England or Freddie Mercury. Either way, I probably shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a Cars & Coffee.
The 2008 Knight Rider series was a pretty poor imitation of the original Knight Rider, but you can thank it for one thing, and that's introducing me to this song.

THE PINNACLES, CERVANTES, WESTERN AUSTRALIA
These snaps were taken in 2004 of the ‘Pinnacles’, in Western Australia, a stunning landscape of limestone pillars and rocks. They are part of the Nambung National Park. The nearest town, just north of the Pinnacles is Cervantes. This is about 250 kilometers (150 miles) north of Perth by road. There is a Visitor Centre, and guided tours are offered.
