At the cafe this morning. The ledge of this cabinet is the perfect height for dogs to do this. I always enjoy seeing it.

Little dog reared up with front paws on a low ledge of a glass cabinet holding cakes.

It’s wet and cold outside, and I’m currently sitting in cafe that’s got Christmas Carols playing for some reason. Interesting start for a Sunday.

April usually means controlled burns, and they’re conducting these burns at a bush reserve near my place. I was afraid that the smoke would be an issue, but so far it’s been such a non-issue I was wondering if the burns were actually called off. Apparently not.

This teeny tiny lizard made its way into my house somehow. I’ve seen it on and off over the last week, but I managed to catch it and put it outside. There’s another one running around that I’ll also need to find and rescue.

Wow, some serious work’s happening on the overhead wires of the train line. Looks like they’re replacing these old stanchions. I guess they’ve reached their end of life. Not sure how long they’ve been in service but they look quite old. Certainly older than me at the very least.

Caught up with my sister, and her two cockatiels this afternoon. Nice to visit them again.

One of the photos I was going to use in my last post was this photo, which was modified using Google’s Magic Eraser. You can compare this with the original photo in that post (it had two people in it). It’s far from perfect, but it’s still quite impressive.
