LEGLESS LIZARD

ll

No it hasn't been drinking too much it's just a wee lizard that hasn't got any legs.  Merlin (the dog) was snuffling in the undergrowth and as he's a great snake catcher, Aaron went to investigate.  Aaron's the chief snake man up at the Base Hospital so is quite au fait with snakes, spiders and the like.  

Here he's showing it to Finn who happily took it to look at more closely.

FROM THE VERANDAH IN MACKAY

"Feed me Mama!"  Actually, I think it's Daddy that's feeding this chick.  Isn't he just beautiful?  I shall look the bird book up tomorrow to see what type of honeyeater this is - it's getting late here...heading off to ma wee white bed...zzzz    It's a Blue Face Honeyeater.

UP IN MACKAY

I'm up in Mackay at the moment while Janet and Aaron are away for a few days in Tasmania.  We Finn has just gone for an afternoon sleep and Sinead is having some quiet time.

Just thought I'd pop in a post and went through the photos on this computer.  Not quite sure what this beastie is but this is the sort of thing you come across in this neck of the woods!

CLOSE-UPS IN MACKAY

 

 

 

 

Just back from a visit up north.  Lovely close-ups of Janet, Finn, Sinead and David.  Didn't manage to get one of my own wee boy!  Sorry Aaron! 

LOOK GRANDPA!

SHALL WE GATHER...?

 

 

EIGHT YEARS

   

When we were in Mackay, Aaron and Janet celebrated their wedding anniversary.  Aaron commissioned this painting by a friend in their church.  The flowers are gerberas which Janet carried in her bouquet.
