Edward the Emu at Sawyer Park

An oldie but a goodie, came across the Wimmera Mail Times' recording of the children's story at the 2017 Australia Day celebrations.
The book "Edward the Emu" by Rod Clements was given a twist with a puppet acting out the scenes.
Thanks to Mary for the reading and the girls with the animals.

Time lapse

A couple of starry nights from Lost Collective
Firstly the Green Cape Lighthouse with its easily recognisable hexagonal tower -'Green Cape Astrolapse'.


And, this one of the Jincumbilly Railway Station

Lost Collective is a project by Brett Patman. Check out some of his other videos and photo galleries. 
I also enjoyed the 'To Bourke and back' and the drone footage from 'A Place to call home' and needless to say the abandoned buildings.

Dog-gone


This optical illusion that appears to be three suns shining down on the earth, is known as a Sundog or Mock sun, formally called a Parhelion (plural parhelia) in meteorology. 

It is an atmospheric optical phenomenon that consists of a bright spot to one or both sides of the sun. It happens when refracted sunlight is reflecting through icy clouds that contain tiny ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. 

Isn't nature neat!
