Today, I’m wondering about how much to dare to dream. I feel like I used to dream as lot, and very big, and then over the years, I started to dream less and less because i wanted to avoid the disappointment of when you dream something and it doesn’t come true. A new Bench. This […]
Day 274 – By the Way Bench
I just love sitting here. Sometimes there’s just no words for it. You really just have to feel it for yourself. I wonder if, listening to the recording of all the birdsongs and the breeze in the trees, you can get the feeling of the softness and the sweetness that is here. Edit: The picture […]
Day 273 – Lily Pond Bench
The path to the Pond has dried so now I can walk on it. There’s a flock of Superb Wrens here, perching on the reeds. I haven’t seen that before. While I don’t see many people sitting on benches, today as I was approaching, there was three magpies sitting on the Bench. As I got […]
Day 272 – Northern Bench
The river has flooded again. Not as high, but high enough for the whole path to be underwater again. Only the back of Northern Bench is showing. On the bright side, the birds love it. I’m looking at a pair of Chestnut Teals across the other side of the river. They’re in what used to […]
Day 271 – Tennis Court Bench
It’s rained so much over the last few days that there is a puddle in between the two tennis courts. It’s quite deep too. We have had the craziest weather lately. It’s been so windy, and raining for the last three days. I bet the river’s flooding again.
Day 270 – Private Bench
Early morning down at the river. It is windy, but a bit sunny, and it rained all night last night. The Moorhen is here again. I love it when the air is fresh, breezy and sunny and everything has been washed clean by the rain.
Day 269 – Switchback Bench
Today smells like honey. All of the Acacia blossoms are falling off the trees. They are lining the path and it makes everything smell like floral honey. I just saw that the same Kookaburra that was here the other day, is in the same tree. I might go take another photo. I wonder if he’s […]
Day 268 – Private Bench
There’s lots of little birds around today, but not a single duck. No Edward , no Teal Ducks, no Wood Duck family, there’s just the Moorhen. I took a beautiful photo of this Moorhen the other day. I’m going to use it today, because I loved the sunlight reflecting off the ripples in its wake […]
Day 267 – L. L. Road Bench
Another new Bench. I’ve been here before, but never sat and benched. I just love being out in the country, where there’s no traffic, no people, no busyness. I love to breathe the fresh air, look at the clouds in the sky and watch the grass waving in the wind.
Day 266 – Windy Lake Bench 2
There’s all kinds of birds here. They are mostly water birds, but there’s also a bird of prey, circling around above the thickest reeds. I think it’s because he knows there’s nests in the thick reeds. I saw a new bird today. It’s very distinctive, and I can’t wait to look it’s name up. It […]
