I do hope that's an old gum tree that bird is sitting on. :)


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

For those that wonder what that's all about - its an old Aussie nursery rhyme part of is
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Merry merry king of the bush is he.

It's nice to see you have some wildlife left down there. The toll has been horrific on the mainland, I understand.

Sadly Australia has been the extinction capital of the world for the last century or two, and these fires are almost certain to drive a few more species over the edge. An appalling indictment of our land management practices of late.
