A Walk Around the Neighborhood

Most of my morning chores done and not quite ready for lunch, I decided since it wasn’t a hot day, I would take a walk. I grabbed my camera of course to document the walk, and hoping to be ready for anything.

As I left the driveway, I saw our neighbor, Michel. Michel is from Seychelles, and if I didn’t have any trouble with Australian as it is, his is with a thick French accent. He’s a sweet man and he LOVES his garden. He is always knocking on our door handing us bags of guavas, tangerines, and mangoes.

Around the corner a bit, is this curious entrance to a house. An interesting way to have privacy.

Australian crows, or better said, ravens, fascinate me. They seem to have their own language. When I looked it up, they do have a lot of sounds that they make.

I couldn’t resist a video outside this school, capturing their language.

 

Black Cocatoos were down the street a bit making chattering noises. I took a photo because John seems to get excited when we see them. Unseen here is a brilliant red under tail.

A magpie and a mudlark fly by me as I am concentrating on the black cockatoos as if to want attention too. 🙂

 

I couldn't resist a chuckle and a photo when I saw this parked along the way. I thought, I better take a photo in the case John gets fed up with sanding floors.

Silas is always saying he would like to come to Australia. So, naturally I found this picture worthy to show Silas the play ground around the corner.

Playground, I can just imagine Silas and Rubí here!

I was making my way back when I spotted the mailman, or postie as they call them. This is what Australian mail carriers look like, figure that, on a motorcycle!
