The colour of our walk today is decidedly red after all the blood and gore spilt in the neighbourhood celebrating ghoulish Halloween. It is the kind of red I love, a small precursor to the summer months here where nature takes over the holiday decor, inside and out.
There was more to our walk today as the weather turned and the rain came down ( thank god) and then all sorts of surprises appeared before our very eyes. A water dragon swimming away from Dougall. I had never seen them in the water before. A terrapin on the upper banks. Now it was Dougall who had never seen one of them before and was very curious, but also petrified.
The path was littered with baby frogs - hundreds of them. Here is one close up.
Dougall checking out a feathered friend - a brush turkey looking festive and ready for action.
And finally - and this is where the intrigue and Halloween come in ... a bra hanging off a branch. This did not follow the colour scheme of the day and was midnight blue. Halloween revelry, bit of drunken fun or a body in the creek ?- Will we ever know ? Tune in to Discoveries with Dougall for more adventures.
Happy November everyone.
