Badger Galore
Staying ‘Up Over’ for a while.
Here we go again!
So...the other day we had another fox attack in the late afternoon. We heard the commotion and saw the fox had grabbed Manitou by the tail. We rushed out and Will yelled loudly and the fox dropped Manitou and ran off.
Poor Manitou! His pride was hurt, most of his lovely long tail feathers were gone and he was in shock and seemed very disorientated as we herded all the chooks back into Fort Yudhisthira. He stopped crowing for a couple of days but started again this morning.
The fox trap is set again...we've caught one before...but these beasts are wily and it depends how hungry it gets and whether it dare risk going for the bait.
Inverell.
So... this weekend Will took me away to Inverell for my birthday. We left on Friday after I finished at the 'Book Cave'. Inverell is in New South Wales and south west of where we live. It took us just over two and a half hours to get there. We have both never been there before.
We had a lovely weekend exploring around Inverell.
Bundjalung National Park - Black Rocks.
So...we are back at Frogknot after our weekend down by the river for the 'Hopeful Dispruptions' exhibition opening.
Yesterday we visited the Bundjalung National Park and walked along the beach at Black Rocks and by Jerusalem Creek.
We did a short walk with Tracy ( The Emu circuit) before she headed to Ballina to pick up a friend from the airport and after lunch Will and I only intended to wander on the beach a little more before heading back to Tracy's but our short wander turned into an epic trek up the beach to where Jerusalem Creek met the sea and back to Black Rocks via the Jerusalem Creek path. We left our shoes in the car thinking we were only going to be walking on the sand. The Jerusalem Creek path, we came back on, was through coastal bushland and my sensitive English feet felt every inch of the return trek. We walked 18 kms in all yesterday and most of it barefoot and my legs are feeling it today.
'Hopeful Disruptions'- The Opening.
So...this weekend we were back down to the river for the opening of the 'Hopeful Disruptions' exhibition. We were blessed with a lovely day.
