Day 115 of 365

Anzac Day 2014
I thought this rose (named Kiwi) was an apt one to show today; its colour reminiscent of the Anzac Day poppy.
See you tomorrow,

Hubby appeared this evening with a bucket of field mushrooms.
Of course I smiled sweetly and prepared them for him for dinner.

Day 105 of 365

Looking down from the house and sheds to the milking cows.
Peaceful cows waiting patiently for the next day so they can get a fresh paddock.
The farm looks green but you can see there isn't much feed... not much milk is going into the vat!
See you tomorrow,
Raewyn.

Day 91 of 365

There was no mistaking the "whoosh" of wings and body flying through the air this morning... how very exciting to see a Wood Pigeon (Kereru) visiting just outside our backyard (actually, out by the tractor shed).
We see these in the bush but seldom near the house. Very high up so not the best photos sorry :-)
Not One.....
Not Two...
But Three!! 
See you tomorrow,
Raewyn.
