Day 60 February 29th 2016

Leap Day! Not sure I have heard it called that before but today there was a whole feature about “Leap Day” on the radio. Traditionally it is the day when a woman can ask a man to marry them – I did just that 16 yrs ago today!  But today’s photo is nothing to do with that!

Another walk around Lake Rotoroa in the centre of Hamilton and I came across this wee fellow;

one legged moorhen

Day 53 February 22nd 2016

A busy work day today but I made time to go out and smell the roses in the garden. Ok, this is not a rose and it has no scent but it is stunning!

Day 43 February 12th 2016

Not much to choose from today – a day spent at the computer working.  But as I sit in my office with the sliding doors open I am serenaded by the chatter of birds and cicadas.  I am not very good at the whole standing every twenty minutes and moving around especially when I am engrossed in a job.  I tend to want to just get it done.  However, when the heat is sweltering and I realise I have been hunched over for a while and I am distracted by a new bird call, I get up to have a look.  Two little wax eyes flit around in the tree.  Unfortunately too quick to snap them but as I stand under the tree something flashes past my face and lands on the tree in front of me.  Beautiful
