    Top to bottom;

    Obviously kangeroos -Bob tailed lizard – Rosella parrot – Australian ring necked parrot – a whistling kite watching an ibis as it headed back to the nesting colony ever hopeful of capturing a chick – a couple of pelicans – a long necked turtle and one of the resident possums in the garden with her baby in her back.

    The things you saw are a whole world away from what we see here. Will you be going back?

    I forgot the really beautiful famous Australian blue fairy wren!

    Unfortunately not Bonjour – no more money for a big holiday, so I made the most of my time there and the two days in Singapore.

    No doubt you have lots of more modest adventures in the pipeline?

    Spain in January Bonjour – Mr F & I were not well travelled so I have never been to Spain.

    Here are some of the beautiful wild orchids I saw

    Spain next? Don’t forget to include the cultural hotspots of Benidorm and Magaluf!

    Yuck.

    I am sure Fruitcake is far more cultured than that. Like France, Spain has lots of great places that are not Up North del sol.

    Benalmadena in a small hotel, definitely not Benidorm but, as I’ve never been, I am no expert on Spain.

    What wonderful photo’s!  Re Spain, they are now checking people riding mobility scooters to see if they are really required, as some people are copying the programme Benidorm.

    Re mobility scooters….I nearly got knocked down by a mobility scooter  last week in Bognor. ….my first week back in uk.

    Flowergirl – They can be rather dangerous!

    29th October 2024 at 7:16 am #604537

    Yes, I was almost mowed down by one in Woodbridge some years ago and I recall reading that someone was killed by one.

    29th October 2024 at 7:25 am #604538

    Just a few more photos

    The beautiful pink Galahs, an exciting discovery of an Ibis nesting colony, a honey eater and, of course, the obligatory sunset.
