30 Word Thursday - Aussie Pub

On the road - Australian Style Country Pub



The long bull-nose topped verandas beckon
Views looking over the river banks
Beckoning hot thirsty travellers or passers by
enticing all to come inside! 
Love a good ol’ Aussie Pub!



This picture was taken whilst on one of the many road trips I have taken recently - every country town has at least 3 pubs - the architecture and style within hasn't changed throughout the decades are many have maintained the beautiful features from when they were buillt in the late 1800s or early 1900's.

30 Word Thursday - Beach








The cobalt blue skies 
engages the azure green ocean 
as the frothy white tips of the waves 
lap the shimmering white sands 
of a hot Australian beach 
... aaaah Summer!

30 Word Thursday - Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday

to my beautiful Nanna My

You would be celebrating 100 years today

if you were still alive.

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you.  xx




It's been 10 years since my beautiful Nanna My passed - I miss her terribly.  She was so ahead of her times - an amazing lady who brought her daughter up on her own in an era when you didn't do that.  She had a tough life, could be difficult but was an inspiration - her drive and determination showed me that anyone can achieve the unachievable.

30 Word Thursday - Idle

Sitting idle
in the twilight
waiting ... watching ...
for the night life to come alive
Oh dinner time
Here I come!





This fella was lying across the top of my clothes line and nearly scared me half to death when I nearly bumped into him (I get loads of snakes in my garden).  He loves sunning himself on the rocks in my garden, and he stayed on the clothes line until the next day when the sun came up!

30 Word Thursday - Hungry!










Hungry

A flurry of colour
All colours of the rainbow
Bright and beautiful their wings outstretched
Their voices whistling in excitement
In anticipation of their nightly feed
Of Sunflower Seeds





These photos were taken at a house I recently stayed where the Rainbow Lorrikeets would gather every evening for their daily feed.  There would be close to 100 every night as well as the myriad collection of cockatoos, galahs, kingfishers and other stunning birds.  These guys were real characters and never failed to entertain!

30 Word Thursday - Peak-a-boo




Peak-a-boo

I see you

But you can't see me

As I'm not supposed to be here

... on the table

as my mum might get a little unstable

Shhhhh …..

30 Word Thursday




Rosie

You were lost

then we found you


Rescued


Your red-golden hues shimmering

Catching our eye


Now


You are in your forever home

Laying eggs

Content and happy
