Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files.
The meme is now continued by River at Drifting through life. The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent. Post some photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to River. Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen.
Like River I usually run with a theme. We have had a couple of chilly days here, and yesterday I woke up to a dusting of snow on the nearby hills . For some reason the snow was on the lower nearby hills -and not higher and further back. Which is unusual. Today we are expecting a minus 5 C start. The cats will not be happy chappies.
The second photo is ice on the letter box. I loved the crystals gleaming in the sun.
But the bliss of the week has come from the birds. About mid week a pair of King parrots were peering in through the window making it very clear that they wanted sustenance. It was still relatively early and his high and skinniness wasn't dressed - but I didn't care. In my capacity as hard-hearted Hannah I sent him outside with a handful of food so I could take photos. The female King Parrot (who is an empress at least) is the one with the green head.
And then I allowed the smaller portion to go inside tothaw warm up, while I took a few more photos.
Since then they have been back several many times. We have both fed them - with smiles plastered all over our faces.
To add to the birdie bliss, most days this week the Eastern Rosellas have been visiting us too. And I have been doing happy dances.
