A wonderful and very overdue visit to visit dear friends today… I had to draw the new cubby house and we also found some very strange seed pods – from an ironbark tree we think? The pods (I don’t know if that is the right term) were all curled up and looked like hanging bugs. Very quick sketch while talking to my friend (which I then embellished at home!)
Ah! It is nice to attempt something green!

We were on the lookout for snakes today but didn’t see them (my friends have local diamond pythons hangout on top of their water tank) So nice to be in bush again for the day and to be surrounded by the sounds of bellbirds and whip birds. (I live surrounded by beautiful bird sounds- but there is something special about those two!)
