Okay then... wait until I tell that old lad that I saw a Fisher!! He's gonna get twice as polite.

I thought it might be a Fisher, but, again, no light coloured fur in the arse end. If only I could have seen the chest and throat, I would know for sure.

Yes, bobad Spring in Aus. It's a fun time. Great to hear all of these stories about other seasons too.
Shining Bronze Cuckoo calling from a tree. She's got her eye on the little woven-bag nest of the tiniest birds we have - Brown Thornbills. She's going to saddle them with her great big fat egg that will hatch into a great big fat baby Cuckoo. They'll spend all Summer trying to keep it fed. Why doesn't she pick on a starling nest or something.
Driveway covered with gold. The Black Wattle has been sheding.
Two Lesser Long-eared bats flying around our heads in the bedroom last night.
Cheers, Joy

LOL, Micca! I love that Monty Python song!

We've had quite a bit of rain lately, along with some very hot humid weather. The garden loves it, and so do the frogs. Tonight we were sitting outside with a cup of tea - it was just getting dark, and there was a chorus of frogs in stereo. In every corner of the garden was a different set of frogs chirping and croaking their little hearts out. If you stood in the middle, you could hear them on all sides. They make a lot of noise for such little people!
