“A meeting in the grasses”
We spent a while late yesterday afternoon watching the kangaroos grazing in Westerfolds Park. I think they were enjoying the cooler weather after Saturday’s scorcher! A great old conversation is being had out there 🦘 #kangaroo #westerfolds #melbourneiloveyou #parksvictoria #nativeanimals #mindfulwalking #suburbanoasis #australiansummer

This image is stunning! One of two very old framed prints I picked up yesterday at @savers_au marked ‘Typo Etching Co. Photo’. I cannot find much about them yet other than the company were operational in the 1880-90s in Chiswick, London. #antiqueillustration #typoetchingco #ilovetoopshop #opshopfinds #thriftstorefinds #saversthriftstore #antiqueprints

Just look at these fluffy feathered faces! Outside

Just look at these fluffy feathered faces! Outside my kitchen window today, the Tawny Frogmouth family has made a return for 2020. I am so grateful they are back as I had feared something untoward had occurred. We are safe here in Melbournes North Eastern ‘burbs, but the wildlife across our beautiful country has suffered terribly, not only with the extreme heat, but with the horrendous bushfires wiping out our animals and unfathomable amounts of habitat. Unprecedented destruction to our flora and fauna, impacting our ecosystem in ways we don’t even know yet. I hate to think of how many Tawnys have been lost. If you’d like to donate, consider one of the wildlife organisations like @wildlifevictoria or @flybynightbatclinic If you are crafty and have time you can join the @animalrescuecraftguild who have lots of information on things you can make to help. Sadly this crisis is far from over. I am keeping a close eye on family and friends in the Blue Mountains with fires marching closer to the townships by the day. The map of fire destruction so far is hard to get my head around. It’s massive.

Bird of Paradise. I picked this original watercolour up last week (along with another by the same artist of a lyrebird dated 1898). Only $4.99 each and badly framed hiding in crappy modern frames. I’ve taken them out of the frames and on inspection they look the real deal. The artist, John Mitchell Cantle (1849-1919) a late colonial era ornithological painter, illustrator from Sydney known for his watercolours of birds. #happybirthdaytome #birdillustrations #watercolourpainting #ilovetoopshop #thriftstorefinds #jmcantle #johnmitchellcantle
