On my walk this morning, the first day of September 2008, 6 corellas munched on the large flowers of the Michaelea dolstopa in the front of the 'Five Elements' nursery.
Ravens cawed and flew high in the stiff breeze.
Two galahs roosted motionless, high in the upper branches of a tall messmate, watching.
The pair of whipbirds cracked and whistled, and scritched and tittered at young Pip.
An Eastern spinebill worked the stachyurus' spiketail bloom, in company with the hum of bees.
A satin bower bird stole blackbirds' dog minis from the shed windowsill.
Currawongs lounged, wattlebirds busied, mynas hassled.
We leave this joyous garden today for some days at Lakes Entrance, where I'll walk by the water and watch birds of different type. Swans, gulls, pelicans, cormorants. Maybe we'll catch some bream or flatties.
