i took a photo of a bird!

we visited ben's mum, who lives up in the adelaide hills, on friday night. neither of us wanted to drive home after she was extra lovely and fed us tasty champagne as well as taking us to chingari's, our favourite indian restaurant, so we made up a bed and stayed the night in her little valley.



in the morning his mum and i traipsed around the garden admiring the prettiness






while i dug up some of the self sown silverbeet and herbs from the lawn to pot up for my balcony



and very happily noted that she's letting the kale go to seed, so hopefully they'll pop up everywhere next year too...




when this little blue wren flitted past!



granted he did sit still for maybe 30 seconds...



but i'm still pretty happy i manage to snap two whole decent photos of him!

(do you think that's too many photos for that little writing?!)
