Our Australian climate is such that many celebrations are held outdoors.
Our family celebrations are important to us, and here we have a one year old grand-daughter celebrating her 1st birthday with a pink bear cake in their back garden on their farm at Dalby.
In the Garden
 |
| This male pigeon is trying very hard to attract the female on the ground below him. |
 |
| The bowing and parading of the male does not impress the female, who is more interested in a duck made of bronze. The duck is much less demanding! |
 |
| So the male eventually has no choice but to fly off and try on another day! If the lady decides she likes him, they will build a loose stick nest together perhaps among some nearby bushy branches, and together they will share the task of incubating the eggs and feeding their young. |
In the Bushland
These two young wallabies were inquisite enough to pause their grazing on a grassy patch in the bushland, to watch us for a few mintutes. May our minds be inquisitive and enquiring.
