Treasure on the path

While C was riding I walked up to the top paddock.  The grass looks incredible after all the rain, and the trees burnt in the long-forgotten fires gleam in the winter sunshine.  I found so many treasures along the walk .. guinea fowl, peacock and owl feathers and delight, a porcupine quill.  I wish I could capture the brilliance of the downy little peacock feathers, here I placed it on the washed, texture of a burnt stump.
