Our power is off today from 9 am till 2 pm. This happens just a little too regularly -- one of the untold joys of country life. As our tanks are primed by an electric pump it means we don't even have water. We're off to Atherton to shop. It's E's birthday and we're having a little dinner party on Friday night, so we may as well get out of the house and buy things now. (Just as well I got up 5 am to start writing this morning.!)
I'm going to lose battery power any sec, but before I dash off -- I want to show you a couple of pics. First, this gorgeous bird house which was our daughter Vicki's Christmas present (It's so fab to have grownup children who buy you cool things).
And also here's our guinea chick -- now ten days old and growing wing feathers. Too cute.

He's a little cutie!
I was up in your part of the world last weekend, I haven't visited in ten years or so, and I had forgotten just how beautiful it is! All those rolling hills... *sigh*
It is beautiful, isn't it? You are very welcome to pop in some time, Lacey. I'm in the phone book.
Congratulations on your new chick. I visited a friend yesterday and her place was awash with native hens, local parrots, paddymelons and lots of wallabies and I fed them bread!! I saw lots of duckies and the echidna as well. I was very honoured. They've built a special perch for the birds and it looks like part of a tree. It was a lovely 'commune' with Nature!!
PS we have the Hydro here but have been plagued with blackouts lately- and we're a whole state!!!
Your friend's place sounds like quite a sanctuary, 2paw. A lovely place to visit.
Thanks Barbara! That's very kind of you :)
