there's magic outdoors...

The beauty of a still seagull never struck me so much as it did this afternoon...
But then, it IS awhile since last I took a walk outdoors...

sands pocked with seagrass tendrils and footsteps
bluest seas with white froth

and the elegant beauty of a seagull

there's magic outdoors

is this a good afro?...

dancing fairy wren...

On my recent birthday - 1st October, I indulged in a walk round Coolart at Somers...
The Spring morning was warm, filtered with gentle winds... perfect for some dreaming...
But I was not alone...
A little fairy wren danced along the track just in front of me...
seeming to watch me closely...

The little dog made no attempt to go for a swim...
He was quite happy watching the waters...
