Dead trees

At Kent St Weir Canning - dead trees are trimmed and left standing to  preserve nesting hollows.

Seriously big nest boxes

Large birds like large hollows for nests. This nest box is attempting to imitate a hollow tree probably for cockatoos. At Kent Street Weir in Canning, Perth.

Spiced Ginger Beer

It's not Xmas and I can get my favourite non-alcoholic drink. Yaaay!

Pink sunset

Smoke makes the setting sun pink in Perth.

bushfire.io

An excellent app to read the bushfire situation. 

Today a large bushfire east of Perth dimmed the sun. Looking at bushfire.io it seems that highway 40 might be closed.

Sunny at last

After weeks and weeks of clouds and rain- a bright sunny day at the Busselton beach.

Kite repair

At Busselton beach. The kite was missing a spar and the central joint was broken. From my caravan repair kit I took bamboo skewers, glue and zip ties to make repairs.

It worked and the kite fly over the Indian Ocean but it suffered a crash and the substitute central joint broke again.

Time for a new kite.
