Minsmere Hide..

sign on the bird hide overlooking the wetlands at Coolart, Somers...
In answer to a number of questions,
a bird hide is an enclosed area for people to watch birds in wetland areas...
There are small openings for viewing and photographs
which minimise
frightening or distracting the birds...
This particular bird hide has two viewing levels..
I must admit, I thought that 'bird hide' was a common, well-known term...


a bird hide
safely watching the wonder
of nesting

Garden Feature at Coolart

Garden feature at Coolart homestead, Somers

like an oasis
like a precious rock pool
waiting for wishes



After I had wandered the wetlands, I wandered past the garden area and found that the little fountain had been turned on.

Soft skies over the Coolart wetlands at Somers


There's a quiet hush
Soft skies over soft waters

The beach may be littered with mounds of seaweed, but somehow there is a charm wandering the shoreline here!
