Well..... just returned from the trip of a Lifetime, two wonderful months in Australia, which I'll try my best to talk you through but excuse any errors, especially in these first days recovering from jet lag!!

Ken, and his lovely wife Judy met me at Brisbane Airport and looked after me for the first two weeks. My head was reeling after the long journey and it was only minutes before the first Lifers were surrounding me in numbers LOL.

First up is this Noisy Miner in his garden. A very regular visitor.

Thank you Ken for being so kind and gentle with me.
