It's such a miserable night we decided to get
fish n chips for tea. It doesn't look a lot
but there was enough for two of us and some left over.
***************
More from our holiday in Aussie.
Once we arrived in Mackay we were able to relax and recoup. I spent most of the first week sleeping, I didn't realize I was so tired until I got out of bed at my sister's home and could hardly drag myself around so after breakfast it was back to bed for me and I stayed there until well into the afternoon. I took the next few days off and slept and didn't do much else, each day I managed to stay up a bit longer. What was my poor old GKB doing while I slept? He was photographing the local birdlife and rather than show you pictures of me sleeping I thought I'd put up some of his birds :)
Sulphur Crested Cockatoo
White or umbrella cockatoo
Crow
Ibis...
...feeding
Masked lapwing or masked plover
Green faced honey eater
Magpie lark aka Peewee
not sure what this is but not a house sparrow
Brown thrasher
another Thrasher
He took all these photos from the comfort of the covered area outside Sis's living area, where we sat to relax of a day.
I hope I haven't bored you by putting up too many pics. And my knowledge of Australian birds is limited so feel free to correct me if I've named them wrongly :)
