School of Fishies Fence

Wow, the time does scoot by doesn't it.
I've not been wasting it, it just kind of slips away without me noticing ;D)

Catching up once more with Theresa at her Good Fences gathering.  I found these pics, that were taken a little while ago, lingering in a "to be sorted" folder.
I've lots of variations of those folders, the "culling needed", "add captions"  and worst of all "miscellaneous" ... oh that's a baddie - and a biggie!!

You'd never guess now that - once - I used to be an efficient kind of lass who ran her office with much order and pride.
Lol, on the other hand, I quite enjoy the lack of pressure of those days.  So, actually, I think my various "to do" folders can stay put a bit longer while I keep enjoying the freedom of retirement - yes!!

We were actually taking some quick snaps for purposes of  getting ideas for housepainting colours when I saw this cute little gate.
I like to straighten my photos before publishing them, however, when I straightened to the gate edge, the little balcony on the left looks right out of whack doesn't it!!

Zooming in a bit, I just loved the look of this house and its entrance and, oh yes, the paint colour... that was the whole purpose of the pics wasn't it ;D)

A cropped closeup... I love those fishies, hope you've enjoyed them too!
Cheerio now :D)

Thanks very much for your visit.  You're always welcome over at Theresa's place too... just click on the image below:

Waiting ... with the birds

Hi everyone, this is my week to join in with all the bird lovers over at Stewart's Wild Bird Wednesday gathering.

While I was waiting for hubby to see the Chiropractor, whose office is across the road from this lovely piece of beach, I decided to join them ... the birds, on the beach, that is ;D)

I set my sights on the Cormorant which is the black lump over in the right of the photo.
I quietly and slowly walked over to him/her.

 

A zoom lens is beaut isn't it.  However, Cormie was on to me!

... didn't seem to mind too much, so I kept clicking and walking slowly

That was apparently far enough, so off he trots and joins the Pelicans

Also on that little patch of beach, were a few jellyfish

While I was bent over taking the previous photo, I looked up and was rather delighted to see this curious Swan paddle over.
It seemed to me, she was fairly interested in what I was looking at.  I always seem to put human thoughts on to animals, but on this occasion that's what it felt like!
(There's a jellyfish directly below the Swan, and one to the right of her)

With Hubby sufficiently bone-cracked, we went for a stroll further down the beach, and here's a few more jellyfish in deeper water.

It was a jellyfish kind of day - you know, just kinda floatin' around, not doing a lot... all good :D)

Thanks for having a visit, you're most welcome to join everyone over at Stewart's spot.  They're a great bunch of folk.  Just click on the image below :
