Interestingly this has come at the time of National Reconciliation Week in Australia - 27 May - 3 June.
"Our theme for #NRW2020 – In this together – is now resonating in ways we could not have foreseen when we announced it last year, but it reminds us whether in a crisis or in reconciliation we are all #InThisTogether."
It has been a couple of weeks since I updated you on my photo-a-day-Covid-19 project. Over the last couple of weeks I have really been trying to get out for a short walk every day to exercise my healing ankle. Lucky for us we have some lovely close walks close to home. I shared some of them with you here in March and September last year - Nature walks. and September wildflowers
Lucky for us we have several very close to home so we don't have to drive too far for me to only walk for half an hour!
Here is my selection of pics from the last couple of weeks
25 - 31 May
Monday 25 May 2020 - We had a huge storm over Sunday night which really kicked up the waves and washed a lot of coastal sand away from the rocks along our Back Beach.
Many fences and trees were blown down, but thankfully we had no damage at our house.
Tuesday 26 May 2020 - playing with one of my botanical eco-prints - adding colour with paints made from leaves and flowers.
Wednesday 27 May 2020 -one of our close walks along the Collie River towards where it enters the Leschenault Estuary.
Thursday 28 May 2020 - a beautiful sunset - photo taken in our backyard
Friday 29 May 2020 - a walk around our city - Bunbury - looking at street art - can you see them looking at each other?
bonus pic - restrictions are being lifted so we could go back to having coffee and cake in a cafe
Saturday 30 May 2020 - Eucalyptus caesia 'Silver Princess'
Sunday 31 May 2020 - Western Australia's internal state borders have eased so we had a lovely day meeting up with family at their beach house
1 - 7 June 2020
Monday 1 June 2020 - another Collie River walk close to home. These are paper bark trees.
Tuesday 2 June 2020 - water birds searching for fish along a Leschenault Estuary walk
Wednesday 3 June 2020 - "Cooinda" in aboriginal language means "happy place. This is new street art, by Andrew Fraser, on the back of a factory building and a wet land garden they have created is next to the Cooinda Primary School.
Thursday 4 June 2020 - late afternoon walk along the Back Beach - much calmer than a week ago!
Friday 5 June 2020 - we went for a walk in Manea Park. A great place for bushwalking close to the city, especially in spring. Tiny orchids are going to pop up from these leaves in the next couple of months.
Saturday 6 June 2020 - seagulls
Sunday 7 June 2020 - another walk along the Collie River. The level of the river is up seeping up through the boards of this boat landing area.
So that is it for another week. I wonder what next week will bring. I hear that Covid cases continue to rise around the world, as well as racial unrest. I pray it will calm down soon.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you and yours are well. I value your comments and look forward to hearing from you. I will try to visit your blogs in return. Have a wonderful week.
