A Walk by the Bay

 Tuesday 5 April

The Redland Bay foreshore was the destination for this refreshing, early morning walk, with the Gaiter Girls.

5.30 am sunrise view, as I ate breakfast.

Still water and overcast sky greeted us on arrival, creating a vista that made us gasp at its stark beauty.

As the sun rose higher, misty blues created a new beauty.


Finally the morning settled into its natural beauty on this precious, crystal clear, sunny day.  Cloud and rain free days have been very rare this summer. 

There was a definite spring to our step.









Time was taken to watch these busy lorikeet parrots, as they prepared a nest in a hollow burl of a eucalyptus tree.






Yes, we certainly enjoyed our walk, and now our cuppa!

Lorikeets in my garden.


I would love to read your comment.

    Such a great walk! Those lorikeets are a delight and such beautiful colours. I would have a hard time getting anything done if they were in my yard.

    The light shining on the boat and water is stunning. And, of course, I've told you before that it is so amazing to me that you have lorikeets in your yard - not a zoo!

    Morning's and late evenings are always the best times to be out walking

    And add in autumn for here. It is so wonderful to be not sweating profusely all the time.
