FRIDAY PHOTO SCAVENGER HUNT. - DELICIOUS.

 

Ah!  Friday again & time for our photo hunt with I live, I love, I craft I am me.  What could I put for delicious as I'm not a particularly good cook, so I really needed to think outside the box.                            Wednesday evening just as I was closing the curtains I noticed something, camera grabbed & I had my photo for today.

Berries, tomatoes and squash which I'm sure you'll agree most of us relish.

BUT..........

                                                                 So do these!

Can you spy the visitor to my veg bed?  Yes a King Parrot feasting on my little yellow plum tomatoes.

The photo is not the best as I was trying not to disturb him so I could get the photo, but as I tried to get a better one, he flew off.  It is a male as they have the red head & the females still have the very red breast, but are much greener on top.  I still want them to come to my garden, but just not eating the veg, which I hadn't realised they liked.  They like the seed in bird feeders too.

Below you can see he had quite a meal from the empty top truss.

Not much from me today, but with thanks to Kate for these word hunts, it keeps me motivated with photography & watching out for what is all around us to be grateful for.  I'll link up later and see what the others have come up with too.

Take care all, stay safe & huggles from Susan.

OCTOBER SCAVENGER PHOTO HUNT.

Here we are again, already!!!!

Joining in with the lovely Hawthorn at I live, I love, I craft, I am me.

1.   A is for...



Arches.           The cellarium at Fountains Abbey.  Taken on our recent trip to UK.

2.   LUNCH.

A picnic in the park surrounding a dam in Ballarat. One from the archives.

3.   11 0'clock.

Taken last week on day that was chucking it down with rain and we were going to a quilt shop (oh dear), so I could get some backing fabric to finish a few quilts.  When I saw the sign we couldn't stop, so took it on the way home & it was still raining.  I thought this category was going to be a no, no, so I count myself lucky.

4.   BLACK & WHITE.

The lighthouse at Dungeness.  Taken on our recent UK trip.  The beach of shingle is amazing.

5.   LOOKING UP.

Ripon Cathedral.  This hand is lit up and looks quite spooky.  One of the volunteers did tell me why it was there, but I've forgotten.  Sorry!  Again, taken on our recent trip.

6.   T is for....

Train.  This little blue train is another from our time at Dungeness.

7.   LANDSCAPE

Another photo taken whilst in UK,  as we were heading home from visiting Timble, a small village in North Yorkshire near Swynsty Reservoir.  I did like this little village and would have liked to have explored, but time wasn't on our side.

8.   TWO.

Two odd thongs (flip flops for those overseas).  They were on the banks of the Cotter River near Canberra, taken last Xmas, whilst visiting our  youngest son who lives there.  Why?  I guess we'll never know.

9.   SWING.

This is the "Swing" Bridge near Sale in Eastern Victoria.  One from the archives.

10.  MY OWN CHOICE.

Now what is celebrated this weekend?  HALLOWEEN!!!!!  I thought this pile of pumpkins was an appropriate photo for my own choice.  Taken at a garden show in Melbourne in 2014.

I hope everyone enjoys my odd bunch of photos for this month's photo hunt. 
Thanks Hawthorn for these 'thinking outside the box', challenges, I do so like  taking  part and also see what others come up with too.  That doesn't sound right, but it will have to do.
Take care all and have a good weekend.
Susan.

PS.  Think I'm early with this one, but we have a busy few days coming up, so am posting tonight as we have an early start tomorrow to get to Ballarat, to help a friend cut up a tree that was downed in some wild weather a couple of weeks ago.
