A morning of medical tests. After not being able to eat for 24 hours, any food tasted wonderful. Currently demolishing a block of chocolate.

Looking west among the Twelve Apostles (or now seven & a half of them)
In Victoria.

A long exposure image has calmed the waves here but it’s still a wild, windswept shipwreck coastline.

Looking down on Melbourne from the hills. I used to drive this road to and from work in Melbourne every day. 100km/60miles each way. Enjoyed the drive. Don’t miss getting up at 4.45am each day though.

This is our latest young female magpie to adopt us. She’s one of of this year’s clutch and a bit of a loner. She’s sings beautifully for us.
