Last Sunday

After doing two loads of washing of the covers of our lounge set and cushions last Sunday, I felt a bit tired and didn't have the mood to cook lunch. I thought at first just to make sandwiches because I bought sandwich ham the day before, but Dorothy told me that she was in McDonald kind of mood and so as David, so off we went to the mall to have lunch in MacDonald. I bought them double cheese burger with chips and drinks, and just a drink for me because I didn't feel that hungry at all. then after the lunch, i decided to take them to our new local library because it is just located nearby and it is open every Sunday from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. It was their first time to visit the new library and they were surprised how big it is compared to the old one. There are many computers added and more study rooms too for big ones as well as for the kids. We stayed there for over an hour and David was able to read 4 books there while Dorothy grabbed the chance to borrow her favourite books.

At Nurragingy Reserve

While we were taking a walk in Nurrangingy Reserve one weekend, a bird lying down on the ground caught our attention. We thought it was a dead bird so I slowly approached to where the bird was to check it out. When I was very close to it, I was surprised that he opened up his eyes, startled by my presence, and quickly flew away. Who would have thought it was alive and was just sun bathing enjoying the gorgeous weather. Just look at the picture.


And so here he was perching on a branch waiting for us to walk away and leave him alone. This bird is called noisy myna and very common here.

Elle

Hubby took our pet cockatiel to the Vet for a check up yesterday because she was looking sick. I just noticed it the other night before we went to bed that she could hardly move from one percher to the other inside her cage and kept on falling down. Then the following morning when I woke up, I checked her right away and saw her at the bottom of the cage still looking sick and while I was having my breakfast, I noticed that she didn't even bother to eat her seeds, which she normally does every time we are having our breakfast she eats too. I felt more worried and woke up hubby who was still asleep because he came home at about 2:00 am in the morning for I couldn't take Elle to the Vet myself because I have to take Dorothy to her tennis lesson.
The Vet said that she must have eaten something poisonous recently, probably a metal that made her sick. We have 2 metal clips inside her cage which we used for clipping cuttlefish shells for a quite a while now. We believe that she must be chewing those. We took the clips out and even moved away Christmas decorations which were close to her cage. She was given a special anti biotic and she is feeling a lot better now and will due for another check up tomorrow and the day after.

Camera Critters

While I took David to the playground at the Reserve close to where we live, there were two rainbow lorikeets suddenly popped out in the crack of the tree trunk. Before I saw them, I could hear bird's noises somewhere but could not exactly determine where those noises came from. I realised then the moment I saw those rainbow lorikeets that they were mum and dad who had babies inside the crack which they built as their nest. The crack wasn't high that I could even take a peek if I want to to satisfy my curiosity but I didn't even if the rainbow lorikeets had already flew away. But I was glad I was able to take a photo of them before they fly away.Interested to join or want to see more Critters from all around the world please click, here.
