Promenade

Fabulous day! Wild, wet and windy, but just a perfect day with the fam. I took a photo of this young magpie on the deck while my son was getting his L plates. We returned to Oakey Hill, to climb an adjacent hill, and although the track was difficult (ie non-existent) we had great fun circumnavigating the fence, eventually breaking through a gap and making it to the top. I took so many photos - the most common themes being mushrooms, kangaroos and yellow weeds, but nothing compared with this fine magpie.

Back home to a warming cocoa and hot cross buns. More birds when we skyped my brother - he is wild for lorikeets and lets them takeover his Sydney apartment. Online board games after lunch with family flung far afield Sushi Go, Yahtzee, Dixit. Roast chicken and lemon sponge pudding for dessert.

We caught the movie Bjorg McEnroe after dinner, very enjoyable, and impressed with how someone who looked so little like John McEnroe could embody him so perfectly. When I finish this, back to my book.

Krakatoa erupted today but no mention of it in the news, just the usual covid.
