Birds and the bees!



When I first set eyes on Peregrine House above, home to BirdLife Western Australia I thought how perfect! It almost looks like a bird hide don't you think! Nestled in the 80 hectare of Perry Lakes Reserve, 13 hectare of which are conservation wetlands, surrounded by old eucalyptus trees, many in glorious flower right now.. if you pull in the shot below you'll see each flower has several gorging bees inside. The reason we were there at Peregrine House is because P, who has infinitely more patience than I when it comes to birding, is joining as a member.. if you have a spare four minutes I'd love it if you had a squizzy at his very first video here.. guaranteed to relax if you're feeling a wee bit stressed :) Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe...

    You're right. The video is relaxing. Very zen. The photos are bright and cheerful. Feels good to see SOMEONE in warm weather with flowers & whatnot.

    Hey, Autumn there? I'm disappointed with the "debut" of our Spring. It's still so cold in Lux!

    These photos are gorgeous, it does look like a hide, I love it! That shot of the flowers with the bees inside is amazing too, I love this time of year for that very reason, it's so good to see the insects up and about again and I love the bright colours in these photos too, put a smile on my face today! :D - Tasha
