THE MEANING OF AUTUMN
AUTUMN is the bridesmaid of Summer and the flowergirl of Winter
AUTUMN whispers the tones of yesterday in a minor key
AUTUMN is an introspective season, when stray thoughts of the mind dive into the mystique of the soul
- Gemma Wiseman
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)

How cute, it is big for a baby. They must grow fast.
This reminds me of the baby magpie I saw on the road on Friday. Great captures, Gemma.
Isn't it lovely when the birds come up so close? Beautifull posed - great photos.
I particularly like your Autumn pictures under the meaning of autumn.
Cheers.
