Ducks Patch

 OK, Taking a grandchild to the zoo is special. SO he is how it went First, we saw the Animals quickly. Even those that didn't want to wake up in the heat. Had a giraffe experience with Evelyn feeding them and getting slobbered by them. But it was the waterhole fun that was the highlight.

 We found Nara and the other Dogs were not compatible. So Nara went home early with Stephan RJ and Gemma-Ann after boxing day. We were only apart for four days but she missed us immensely. And while the parents are away, the children play.....

 I love taking pictures of Birds. Some are in my own Garden or Forest, or at Dubbo recently. This one I caught at the Dubbo zoo on the Elephant Compound This one was with the Cheetahs Or in the Picnic Area Or down by the river How about the palm outside Lissa's place It was a feeding frenzy in the palm tree that day This one tried hiding in a tree But came down when he thought it was safe. This guy was feeding in the rain. Not seen often at the feeding tray. These King Parrots were are a regular. The cockatoos are a regular and normal fight for a place. This time I had four of them discussing who goes first. This guy won though.

 Some of the Christmas Fun we had at Lissa and Jakob's place Evelyn was enjoying herself As a family Photo, well that was not so easy. Granddad and granddaughter got to pick at the chocolate together. one for you, one for me. Evelyn loved sharing her cheerio's IT is heavy work have a good friend at Christmas I'm still not sure who was the naughty one and who was nice. We also got to have a breakfast picnic with Evelyn. Overall, a great Christmas.

So would you travel 10 hours to see someone, Yes I would.  For me, it is my Granddaughter  Evelyn.  

 Each morning we take Nara up to Fibveways or down to the silvan forest for her walk. Some of the early mornings in the forest give us some beautiful views. Well worth the effort.
