Guineas sunbaking
Thought I’d try to steer away from Council related topics today. It is Saturday morning and I have caught up with my personal inbox and don’t won’t to think about my Council one. Today many people will be visiting the Glenwood Swap Meet and tomorrow we will be able to savour seafood at our local Hervey Bay Seafood Festival. With Seniors Week activities underway the week is packed with events. I tip my hat (well I would if I was wearing one) to all the organisers. Events take an awful lot of co-ordination to set up and many volunteer hours go into making events happen.
At home the remaining 5 new Guinea Fowl are well settled now and sit eagerly awaiting the morning seed ration on our verandah. If we don’t get up early enough they even start tapping on our windows. We feed them close to the house to ensure that we can fend off the Brush Turkeys as we do not want to feed them! The two old Guinea Fowl have assimilated well with the new birds but still leave the yard to roost in their traditional roost trees down the road come nightfall. Our new birds flutter and fly high up into a tree on the edge of our forest and so far the rotten fox has not been spotted again. The Council fox trap managed to trap a bandicoot, an echidna and several brush turkeys. Obviously all dumber than the fox who has eluded capture!
Graham and I are both holding steady after loosing 10 kilos each on the Tony Ferguson plan and while I think I should lose a bit more I’ll await the warmer weather before making up my mind. It is so much nicer being lighter and smaller and my knees are much happier also.
Graham and I have booked tickets to see a show by a unique orchestra called Deep Blue Orchestra. They are performing at the Brolga on the 11th Sept. You can watch a short clip of them via their web site. I am looking forward to this night out and recommend that you check out their web site and come along if interested.www.deepblueorchestra.com
Too cold for a dip!
