Birds and a koala

These photos were taken recently when we went camping. This is a stream that crosses our camp ground.

… to do whatever it pleases.

We had a lovely time camping with not much to do at all. Our daily activities included reading, drawing, deciding where to eat and watching the world (mostly birds) go by.

Here are photos of birds we spotted:

It was happy to sit on my hand for some biscuit crumbs.

We saw 2 koalas – noisy creatures, especially at night. They make sounds like snoring but 50 times louder!

We celebrated my husband’s birthday. On his birthday, we had a nice meal out. That’s him – the birthday boy having a stretch on the beach.
