Haircut for Santa.

While at the hairdresser having an overdue haircut, of my long white hair. A small girl probably about 3 years old, came over me and asked, “Are you Santa Claus”. I responded, “Even Santa needs a haircut”. She quickly ran back to her Mum and telling her, I was Santa

 

Her Mum told her, she had to sit still and be good for Santa, The hairdresser laughed and continued the haircut, Meanwhile the little girl sit perfectly still with a smile on her face,

 

When The hairdresser had finished, she slipped me a Lollypop and I paid the bill.

 

As I went Out, I knelt in front of the little girl and told her “Please stay on the nice list, not the naughty list, and gave her the Lollypop”.

 

She shouted she would, As I winked to her Mum.

As I walked out her Mum had a smile that was memorable. And a little girl shouting she knows Santa.  As for me, I had a warm smile that I had made a little girl’s day.

Healesville Sanctuary

 

The Healesville Sanctuary is a quiet little zoo, especially for local animals.

 

Jennifer and I have passes that let us almost any time.

This morning, there were not many people about due to Covid and animals missed seeing people.

 This echidna wasn't having anything of it, food was all on his mind.

 Meanwhile, this guy came up close and then decided to hide behind his wing.

 but I was able to get so great shots.

 These lorikeets were just playful but when the camera came out.

They got shy

A pleasant day for us as it wasn't too hot.
