A Thought For Each Day!

 
I had so much enjoyment capturing this crow taking a bath, splashing about for several minutes, in a pond on a warm day. I find it is a wonderful feeling to stop a while & recognise the simplicity of life & nature for which we take for granted. Like taking a very deep breath, exhaling slowly & calming the hum drum down.
We spent several minutes as if in a world alone, this bird & I, enjoying the miracle of life, unoticed by several passers by......

Tripping in the sunshine..... Spring is almost upon us, Yay!!

 
I took the opportunity after work today to capture a beautiful day.... it's called "Seizing the moment!"
 
So many birds singing & busy in the lead up to spring season & raising babies, bees enjoying the sun gathering their nectar, people outdoors making the most of glorious warm sunshine, walking their dogs, cycling & jogging. Me. well I was 'walking'!! BUT, I had photo's to take..... 
Enjoy my snapshot of today around the Barwon River & at the Botanic Gardens, Geelong.

Splash of Splendid Native Colour


I just wanted to bring some lively colour into our wintry world!
Amongst the rain, chilling winds & fog, if you take a peek, you'll find some wonderful colours of Mother Nature springing into the beauty of life..........
