A little light reading

Secrets of the Sea House is interesting to say the least! Jumps from the 1800s to 1990s & is about Mermaids (and other things).

Monday Mellow Yellows

The yellow blossom on the tree (that the neighbours don't like) is looking blooming good!


Not many people at the lagoon today, most of them regulars. Then there was this beautiful family
Visiting from Sydney.

Skywatch Friday


Yesterdays weather, cloud cover, warm & humid
today blue, blue cloudless sky, hot (going up to 37C) 
Hay fever has kicked in for me, Sparky can't remember summer & is flopping around in the shade. Think I might do the same!!!
I'll have to dig the fans out.

Wordless Wednesday - not today

In memory of my grandfather. He lied about his age when he joined up in 1915 (he was 10 years older than his records show)
he died in 1946 age 81.
Thinking of him today & many more who did not come back.

Ruby Tuesday Too


I have been asked to facilitate a workshop for adults to make Christmas tree ornaments. As it happened I had been saving Sparkys small cans of food. They have come in handy to make Christmas Bells. Some left in gold or silver some to be painted. What do you think!

***** Happy Birthday Sparky *****

Last year this little scrap turned up
Couldn't believe his luck!
Played with crystals,
slept on best jumper,
climbed trees,



and today is a pampered one year old!

Skywatch Friday

I was in a bit of a hurry yesterday when I said there was a 'crown of birds' what I meant was a CROWD! 
Here they are again today below a mottled sky.

Carnaby's black cockatoo

There are a crown of these birds in the back yard this week, cutting down branches in the gum tree. Only enough space for a couple at a time drinking! I managed to get a pic of one. My goodness they are noisy!!!
