Denmark Birdbath

Please identify these birds, enjoying the local facilities on Mt Shadforth, near Denmark.




Yarloop Fire

Driving down to Denmark a month ago, an enormous plume of smoke was visible for the entire 5 hour journey. It was the devastating fire around Yarloop. This was taken about halfway down.


Christmas Season Nearly Over

After Christmas, I bought up as many supplies of festive fare as I could, before they vanished from the shelves for another year. But now those stocks are dwindling, as I consume the last remnants of last year's seasonal food. Last week, the final Christmas Bombe was eaten, along with the final carton of brandy custard. I've opened my final pack of mince pies, and there are only a couple left. Once they're gone, all that remains are a couple of mini Christmas puddings, the last reminders of my favourite time of the year.
