AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Super pictures. The Cockatoo is a magnificent bird. I never thought of where their native habitat might be but now I know.
Gemma, do you have a Stat COunter? If so, you would have seen a spike in the entries from Canberra this week. :)
We have been using your beautiful blog again for the teaching of Haiku. :)
I have Grade 4 this year. They write a haiku for all their forms of writing this year. They can be found in all their units and themes. It's part of the set writing tasks for all the work we do this year.
Hello Gemma~ Love these hungry cockatoos. Have you ever tried to feed them?
FAntastic shot! Well done!
Have a great Sunday and be always happy!
