Head to the Hills

Time to head to the hills again....
an advertisement for a parachuting center along the way...always gets to me!
the summer crops are ready to harvest...sorghum?
seems as if some cormorants have moved into the gardens up there...are they replacing the very large and noisy bat colony...I didn't see or hear any of the bats there this time...

the ducks are always looking happy to be fed....
lovely walks to be had through these gardens....


and on the way home, some hay bales to take a photograph of as I stopped for fuel.

a picnic on the banks of the Brisbane River as you cross it....always a good spot....

and the view in the rear vision mirror as I left there....a couple of Moreton Bay Fig Trees.

ALL your photos are beautiful! I got a laugh out of the 'falling people' sign.

The cormorants are simply lovely. They visit here every year, but I've never gotten this close a look.

Australia is absolutely beautiful...I so enjoy your photos. Loved the garden shot and something about hay fields always gets me. The picnic area on the Brisbane is so peaceful. The "falling people" sign strikes me as so Australian humor.
Oh, Annie, these are simply gorgeous!! And I am fascinated by the fig trees...so lovely!! Btw, I want to tell you that I simply love your header photo and the quote beneath! So perfect for your blog...and a beautiful pairing of a fabulous photo and wonderful words! ~Janine XO

Your world is lovely. Those cormorants sure are cute! I hope you don't have the problem with a virus killing off thousands of bats as we do here in the US in the northeast.

The park is gorgeous and serene-looking.

I enjoyed accompanying your Family on this outing, Annie. I like the "feet" on those fig trees. What's this about people falling from the sky? It must be an Australian thing!

It looks a great park for walks. Where is it?
