Don’t mind me. Just eyeing off a pigeon that’s looking at me funny.

Former site of a cafe I use to frequent. Kind of amazing to see how small the plot of land actually is, when you take out all the walls and furniture.

Vacant lot, beside a brick wall and road, where once a building stood.

Got an earful of these buggers this morning (they stung me on the earlobe).

I did not take it gracefully. 😂

Finally got a chance to say hello to Evie, the young border collie, this morning. She and her human are regulars at the cafe I go to, so I see them quite frequently from afar. But this was the first day she came to my table for a pat.

This new protected crossing was installed on one of my walking routes while I was away. It’s actually about time, as this rail crossing sits between two curves and with no warning of an approaching train, was actually rather dangerous. Plus, it’s always fun seeing new rail infrastructure installed.

A pedesterian rail crossing with feces and automated gates that will close when a train passes by. This is backed by suburban streets and trees.

Evening walk, with the currawongs out in force. This one was nice enough to let me take a photo.

Today’s infrastructure related question: is the water level of this (artificial) lake too high, or is the bridge just too low?

An artificial lake, covered in some form of red water plant, with a road bridge that is about 50 cm close to the water line.

Ivy’s been soliciting for head scratches by rubbing her head over people’s palm. It’s a technique that tends to work.
