We have many lakes nearby our home and plenty of birdlife fly to and from these lakes each day. We thought a visit to the park would be fun and Jenna needed to take a water sample from the lake for her Chemistry work to test the ph level. So off we went, breadcrumbs in hand (and camera of course) to run in the sunshine.
Just look at these beautiful Egyptian Geese basking in the sun…
Erin climbing a Willow tree…
The Egyptian Geese and a couple of Coots swim over for some crumbs…
Jen spotted a beehive hidden in the trunk of one of the Bluegum trees, we stayed a safe distance away and I just zoomed in for the photo with my camera…
Jen taking the ph sample, the lake was slightly acidic…
Now I am off to plan and prepare everything for Kye’s 5th birthday tomorrow, I can’t believe how time has flown, it seems like just the other day when he was a tiny little mite… I love preparing for birthdays, we start the night before by placing a birthday table in the lounge decorated with flowers and gifts and of course the birthday crown. Then in the morning the birthday child is greeted with kisses from each member of the family, 5 kisses for Kye because he is FIVE tomorrow:) Tomorrow will be a baking morning to bake the birthday cake and then in the afternoon friends will be coming over for a small birthday party… he really can’t wait, he has literally been counting down the days and has drawn a little calendar, which is too precious and marks off a day each day, yeah, too sweet:)
