A little bit of pastoral bliss
A little bit of pastoral bliss in the midst of suburbia. Photos taken with my phone on a neighborhood walk today.
Out for a park walk. The flowers next to the library have had their day and now the beds are prepped for whatever is next. Always exciting to guess what it will be. Marigolds and petunias last year - wondering if it'll be a repeat.
Another breezy day along Hamble Shore on Thursday.
I'm not the only one looking for refreshments in Hamble on Thursday.
The clouds are beginning to break as I arrive at Hamble Quay on Thursday.
Yesterday I went for an 11km walk along the North Arm, Kalimna Jetty & Lookouts and the Esplanade. These photos are some of the things I saw on that including ( & ), views of Gippsland Lakes and life.
Some pictures from a recent walk around Cannenburgh Castle. The third picture shows two streams that were historically kept separate from each other because one contained a lot of iron, which was alright to use as a power source for some of the mills further down the stream, but the paper mills required the cleaner water from the other stream for their production process.
See YouTube for a longer impression of the walk:

During my morning walk today, I encountered numerous squirrels darting about, but unfortunately, I couldn't capture a photo in time. Later, while talking with my mom, I mentioned how adorable they are. She remarked, "Have you ever considered how fantastic a life squirrels must lead It seems like everyone adores them."

The deer here are kind of judgmental and it is always their hiking path, and they always have right of way.
I mean, I dont argue with them.
I will argue with those mosquitoes though. They need to buzz off.
A few minutes sitting by the shore in the Royal Victoria Country Park on Tuesday afternoon, then round the park to the caf.
Walking into the wind along Hamble Shore on Tuesday afternoon. A really narrow section of beach up ahead and an overhanging tree to negotiate. (Yes, I could have taken the path instead).
These fungi on Hamble Common seem to be in a tree climbing competition.
The path or the river path or just the river at Hamble Common on Tuesday afternoon.
A sharp shower just as I arrived at Hamble Quay on Tuesday. Then, sunshine and an increasingly blue sky.
Silky poppy petal fallen on the lawn.
The roses in the park grow more beautiful every day.
Saw a mother and 3 young babies on a nighttime :meowawauu:
Park walk this morning. The different colours of the fallen Moreton Bay Fig tree leaves caught my eye this morning.

31 weeks of measuring my steps.
Linear regression now predicts an increase of 79 daily steps per week.
The weekly chart is so noisy that the trend is somewhat hard to see.
The monthly and quarterly charts make it more obvious.
October's here, and that means it's ! I walk a lot anyway, but in October I do an 'intentional' that's not part of my commute each day.
Looks like this letterbox was set up by someone who also likes encouraging
