Illustration Friday " Expired"

Canberra

Just returned from a few days in Canberra. It was a group trip  associated with the course I'm doing, to see the exhibition of the post impressionists from the Musee D'orsay in Paris. We had a great time as the exhibition was well worth the ten hour trip on a bus. One of the highlights was seeing a couple of fruit bats outside our bedroom window. It's a shame I coudn't take a better photo of them as they were too far away for my small camera. The other photos are of the war museum in Canberra.

Illustration Friday " Perspective"

When you are looking for a mate, it puts life into perspective.
The blue wren is one of the smallest birds in australia. The male changes colour to blue in spring, to attract the female. They are sociable little birds and I love watching them hopping around in the bush.
