Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files.
The meme is now continued by River at Drifting through life. The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent. Post some photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to River. Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen.
Like River I usually run with a theme. This has been a busy week, and the next couple will be too. So I am reverting to type.
A less than stellar shot (pun intentional) of the moon over a neighbour's home.
Then the following day's dawn starting from the same angle.
It was a much more dramatic display than we usually see. The next photo is a much more common sight. And also very welcome.
The rainbow lorikeets are here so often we have started referring to them as Piggy and Grunter. Not only do they claim the apples for themselves (evicting much bigger birds) they sometimes demand the feeders as well, with some classic 'dog in the manger' behaviour. They evict other birds from the feeders and then realise that leaves the apples free. So they rush back to the apples. And the feeder. And the apples...
The other birds also give us immense pleasure.
A galah.
And a corella.
I am in full on gardening mode at the moment, planting hundreds of bulbs (and weeding) in the hopes of a spectacular spring display. Lifeline is busy and demanding more than their usual pound of flesh. Himself has several specialist appointments scheduled. And not next week but the week after our gutters and downpipes will be replaced, with (hopefully) roof restoration to follow. In between some insane busyness next week we hope to get to the National Museum (a fascinating building) to see a special exhibition. Cross your fingers, and watch this space.
