I haven’t been to the lily pond for a long time. There’s lots of frogs after all the rain. There’s also three little calves in the field behind. I remember thinking some of the cows looked very pregnant, and now they’ve had their babies.

Day 202 – Lily Pond Bench
There is so often Eastern Rosellas in the big gum tree at the Lily Pond. Today, there’s also some very pregnant looking cows in the field behind. They’re all black cows. Some of them came to say hello to me.
Day 175 – Lily Pond Bench
It’s very windy today. The clouds are racing across the sky. It’s raining on and off. The sun comes out, and then it rains, then the sun comes out again. I’m at the Lily Pond with the frogs. I’m not feeling peaceful today. I’m feeling like I need to keep walking faster and further instead, […]
Day 161 – Lily Pond Bench
The sound of the wind in the pine trees is such a Lily Pond Bench sound. Also the frogs, they are a very Lily Pond Bench sound. I took a photo of the brand new baby pine cones. The trees are covered in them.
Day 152 – Lily Pond Bench
I was just looking around here wondering what to take a photo of, when I saw these two teal ducks coming in low. I knew they were going to land. So I took a photo just as they were about to. There’s hardly any lily pads left. It’s too cold. The ones that are left […]
Day 87 – Lily Pond Bench
I haven’t been posting lately. I’ve still been sitting on the benches though. Lily Pond Bench, By the Way Bench, Back Deck Bench, the Other Side Bench and even down at Pier Bench. The pier was beautiful, I sat out there all alone listening to sound of ripples gently slapping on the underside of the […]
Day 73 – Lily Pond Bench
I was sitting very still on the Bench today just enjoying the moment, when this tiny, fuzzy caterpillar with an amazing headpiece started trekking past me. His furry little ‘feathers’ ruffle very smoothly and rhythmically as he walks. He’s magnificent in his tiny-ness. He doesn’t seem to mind that he’s so tiny and that his […]
Day 70 – Lily Pond Bench
There’s a Black-shouldered Kite above the Bench today. He’s hunting in the field beside the pond. They’re amazing birds, white with red eyes, and this black pattern on the tips of the underside of their wings. So you can only tell if it’s the Black-shouldered or the Letter-winged Kite when they fly. Both have an […]
Day 68 – Lily Pond Bench
All the lily flowers are open today. It’s just beautiful. They must open up on the sunny days. They are standing proudly on their little stalks and opening up their perfect little petals to the sun. Some have little tinges of pink and others are pure waxy white. Gorgeous.
