A Tree ..a very old Tree...Alone

This Tree is alone on a windswept bucolic landscape

It screamed to be photographed against a cloudless sky

So I DID!

An alluring, resprospective, analogue timepiece

My only clue to you finding out its Melways will be ...3041

ENJOY

Daffodils at Rusticania

Travelling past Old Farmhouse today , I was delighted to sight the flush of Jonquils and Daffodils
They may have had an ornamental pond out front of the House me thiks..there is a kind of circle in that position

So tranquil

Melbourne's SKYLINE from North

It is loverly in the extreme to view the skyline of your hometown when you are away

I love the way Melbourne appears like a set of scales with 5-6 BIG Buildings in the East and 3-4 Larger buildings to the WEST and a smattering of smaller ones in the middle

Its so Archetypal

As you travel on the Hume Hwy towards Melbourne you make your first sighting as you pass over Mt Ridley....NEARLY HOME PEOPLE

I Love Melbourne...THE GREATEST SOUTHERN MOST CITY in the world

Horse ,my kingdom for a horse!

A horse is a horse, of course, of course, And no one can talk to a horse of course That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mister Ed
Go right to the source and ask the horse He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse. He's always on a steady course. Talk to Mr. Ed.
People yakkity yak a streak and waste your time of day But Mister Ed will never speak unless he has something to say.
A horse is a horse, of course, of course, And this one'll talk 'til his voice is hoarse. You never heard of a talking horse?
Well listen to this. I am Mister Ed.

Just singing that tune makes me happy...I loved palaminos.
This time of the year they still have their hairy wintercoats but they love the flush of juicy new grass shoots that begin from August...and horses are gregarious...the brown ones ..the black ones ..the bay ones... the chesnut ones
All with their noble heads and flowing manes and their big soft eyes

I love animals and photographing them.

Woodlands Windmill

Windmill, Windmill for the land
Learn forever hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is sticking,falling down
Love forever, Love is free
Let's turn forever you and me
Windmill, windmillfor the land
Is everybody in

I so love this tune ...i happened by chance to pass one on my way to work
So blissfully serene and bucolic
shimmering in noon sunshine on a even more beautiful day

Have you guessed the tune yet?

ALPACAS ..cute but?

Travelling along the road that transects Crow Hill , I spotted these large woolly critters..members of the camelid family and much esteemed for their fleece/wool.
They appear to me to be novel yuppy sheep ....but I am sure their tax deductibility and their economic use of acreage make them much loved.
Personally I dont trust anything that expectorates at you....so DISrespectful!!!!

Spring is nigh....ya can smell it!

I am consistently elated ..relieved when the sun does a left turn wheelie on 21st June and our daytime hours lengthen
One of first things I see is plants and trees like wattle start to blossom and flower
I love wattle and its little balls of yellow with its waxy smell
This is from Woodlands Homestead north of Tullamarine Airport
