15 years ago I saved a street kitten from dying, and he rescued me from feeling like a burden. I'm so glad he's still alive, my Treasure. We miss his cousin Fern, my baby girl, Best Feline Friend, who died last year #FuckCancer #RescueCats #AdoptDontShop

This is my beloved 15 y.o. baby boy, Trezh
A photo of a fluffy ginger cat sitting on top of a wooden fence, in part-profile, slightly turned towards the camera. The background is trees and sky. Golden evening sunlight from behind him gives a radiant outline to his head and shoulders.

On 26 January 1938, Aboriginal people held a conference in Sydney and observed a Day of Mourning for the 150 years of invasion and colonisation by the British.
A newspaper cutting from 1938 featuring a black & white photo of Aboriginal adults and children standing with a big blackboard on which is written: Aborigines Conference. Day of Mourning. Aborigines Only. One of the adults and one of the children hold smaller signs: Aborigines Claim Citizen Rights!

We had 24 mm of rain today; great for the garden.
#FlowerReport #rain #gardening #CrepeMyrtle #dahlia

I'm late in replying, dear MERL, but here are some Australian wood ducks on the roof of my house (in south-eastern Australia)

Two Australian wood ducks stand on top of a red brick chimney, silhouetted against a cloudy sky. one is a female Aus wood duck, speckled grey & brown, the other is a male Aus wood duck, grey body, dark brown head. another female wood duck is peering out from behind the chimney.

A beetle in my garden
#bugs #insects #Australia #garden #photography
Small shiny green beetle with two red spots and a pattern of black spots, clinging to a plant's stem. A pale finger and thumb in the background, holding the stem further down the plant. The beetle is a bit bigger than the person's thumbnail.

in 1996, I went to Wales. Friends took me to the Brecon Beacons. This dry-stone wall looks like a haphazard pile of rocks, but was carefully built and will last for ages
foreground: yellow-flowering gorse bushes, grey stone wall. background: rocky hill, over-exposed cloudy sky
