I really enjoyed this one, primed by nature docos I was waiting for the dark turn, but no, a babe! You have some beautiful turns of phrase and the book and the iceberg lettuce just made me giggle and tied it all together!
Thank you, Gillian. The book was very real. The iceberg lettuce may have been fictional, but there's a 90% chance that happened too 😆 And the babe, we later heard from a Kiwi friend whose father lives on a boat in the Bay of Islands what it was we saw. I was kicking myself, thinking that maybe if I looked even harder I may have noticed some other little detail. But I doubt I would have. I couldn't exactly go and stick my head in the water to see what was happening, (although I would have liked to) it would have surely been bitten off 😂

These are the hours of wonder. Alia your words and painting share the love.
Thank you, Jeff. The wonder is always there for those who look ♥️
Beautifully told!
Thank you, Steve :)
You’re welcome. It was! Heading up your way later this week: Chiltern for birdwatching, then Bright for Mountaingrass as usual, next week.
