This is the most amazing time of year. The wet has well and truly gone, the humidity with it and the light is stunning. We are very happy enjoying our new house and space and of course the view which is at its best in the mornings, with drifting clouds over the mountains beyond.
The kids gave me a fabulous pair of binoculars for Mothers Day and this morning I was able to watch a silken parachute as it floated west across the river below. Not sure who it belonged to and I hope it wasnt from someone dropping into the Endeavour to become some croc's breakfast!
In the meantime the days are glorious, the nights are cool and hit has been nice not sweating at all for the first time in months. There are an abundance of Blue winged kookaburras on every power pole at the moment - just amazing to see them everywhere with their bright blue flash on their wings. The kids are busy, with Toby recently competing in the Cape York Cross Country championships he did quite well , coming 11th out of 47, seeing he had got up at 5am and driven all the way from Cooktown to Cairns (well..he didnt drive). Toby heads off an Environmental camp next week and then it is the school holidays and we head north to explore the top of Cape York.

| Sorghum heads on the rd to Laura I have been flat out again this year with both my 'day job' working with the Kuku Nyungkal Rangers as well as a new project - the Laura Dance Festival. This is a great gig - doing all the marketing and publicity for the Festival - a dream event that happens every two years. Anyway more on that once it happens next week |
