Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ At one address in Dromana, Mornington Peninsula are 3 free standing mailboxes.
This is most unusual because when several units are on a single block of land, mailboxes are usually like inserts in a wall!

P.S. I am aware that U.S. has official mailboxes.
But anything related to mail is great for this meme!
It's OK to think outside "the mailbox"!!!
N.B. As I think of extra possibilities, I will add them to the list!

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)

Hi Gemma How are are you Like your triplet mailboxes Several units are quite common here
I really like the numbers: 1, 2, 3,...6!
That is unusual! And they also appear to be unusually large for private mailboxes. They're not far off the size of a public post box! Perhaps many residents in the Mornington Peninsula area receive large postal items? A very cool find Gemma :)
They look almost like little robots. That would be handy they could walk up to the door with mail.
I love the style though. So creative Australians.
(I pray that other participants have a pop up comment window so I will be able to leave a comment to their entry. Oh please! I can't do with Embedded Below Post comment window. It doesn't work with mine template). Sigh.
I like these three ... they do seem to be a little larger than most mailboxes ... I hope that means they get lots of mail!
