Hi.. how are you guys? I came a long way from the past to greet you. I haven't been at Steemit for a long time. Life is indeed full of surprises. Because the universe can conspire the most to make your

Found this little mushroom outside a bush hut, doing its thing quietly and without fuss. I liked it. Quick post while I'm a passenger on the way home from a day of appointments down the coast from us.

As the golden orb sank into the sea of rye yesterday evening, it occurred to me that the sun was also setting figuratively on the life of the hay: it'll be cut very soon and we'll be bringing in bales!

I caught this little fella through the frosted glass of a window recently. I'm not sure if he was looking for a morsel around the window frame or strutting his stuff in front of the other blue wren in

Shadow on the paddocks and sun on the puffy cumulus to the east this afternoon. I've been outside repairing two leaks in our bore water pipe which waters the cattle troughs. Old pipe with a split at two

"There have to be some out there somewhere. Deep in the wild, surely." Ask almost any Tasmanian and they'll tell you they wish the Tasmanian Tiger, or Thylacine, still lived. The last wild one

Yesterday I noticed the first fruit tree with flowers on it. It's a full week later talhan last year but the cold weather's been about longer. Enjoy your Friday all! Steepshot IPFS IOS Android Web

I see you in the clear blue sky and sun standing proud beside the track. Old and weatherbeaten but faithfully fulfilling your duty. I pass you with barely a glance, able to stride the sure way on my own.

This little arachnid enjoyed its lunch outside the dining room window, having softened it up and pre-packaged it some time earlier. It was fascinating watching it drink. Steepshot IPFS IOS Android Web

The kids love it! Full of fruit, nuts and good energy, I usually take it hiking with me (it keeps for ages), but I've just had a couple of pieces with yoghurt on top for lunch and it'll keep me going for

A brilliant reverse sunset which I spotted to the east, and the pastel remnants of the real thing to the west just a few minutes later. Steepshot IPFS IOS Android Web
