The Old and The New.

 

Setting up for the mornings market. I really liked the contrast of the two.

Tui.

 

This fella was singing away in a Kowhai tree absolutely covered in flowers in a busy Auckland street.

Tough Day?

 

I can sympathise with her :)

Orangutan and Baby.

 

I did enjoy watching this mum and her babe, her expressions were interesting, and could relate to any mum's.

Neighbourhood Watcher.

 

This is in the middle of a suburb in Auckland City.

A Face?

 

The last bit of bark left on the stump.

Western Rosella.

 

This was taken in West Auckland, definitely an Australian parrot, some say they were blown over, others say they had been caged and escaped. Whatever, they're still beautiful.

Cornwallis Wharf.

 A different view to the usual photos of the wharf, and I have converted one to black and white.

Female Blackbird.

 

This litle lady didn't mind sitting still long enough to have her photo taken.

Whiskey, In Black & White.

 

The family cat.

Suzie's Morning.

 

She's 14yrs old and enjoying one of life's comforts.

The Neighbour.

 

This is the neighbour's paddock across the road in the thick mist we had this morning.

The Shed.

 

My cold damp morning. I was about 300m away.

Wasp Nest.

 

I am showing the same nest in different lights, I like both and one is showing more wasps.

Native Skink.

 It's a long time since I've seen one of these little fellas.
