Lake Parramatta - Last day of July, 09

It's winter, but tell that to the honeyeaters who think it's spring. I guess that's a very unscientific statement. Okay, they were feeding, chasing and telling everyone THIS IS OUR PATCH - piss off. At NWG Inc we are in Haiku producing mode - and so I decided to get busy with the images on the bush tracks but I failed to capture the honeyeaters' vim:

Walking around the lake/ hear the honeyeaters sing/ do not linger here...

so I wrote a sleepy one

Branch over water/ two little cormorants doze/ full of live breakfast...

Fairy Toadstools - April 09

Bruce took this photo (at my insistence:) near the Cassins hangout up the Blue Mountains. I thought they were artistic flights of fancy - but no - they're real. Not trying to cook one though.

Home Beauty - South Coast

The cattle are just beginning to notice us, but can't tell the difference between gawkers and farmers with hay. We were kind of glad there was a fence because within seconds of the first picture being taken the herd was trotting quite quickly in our direction...
Feeling guilty we drove off.
