Your age is measured by your dreams not by the years.

Isn't that what some wrinkles are called? This tulip, even though it hasn't much life left, still has a lot of beauty, in my mind. The wrinkles give it so much more character ;)
Taken in my lightbox.

This photo was captured in Paradise valley which is located in the hills behind Apollo Bay in Victoria, Australia.
As this wild Kookaburra was small with its feathers all over the place, in a nice sort of a way, I gathered it was young but maybe it was older and just having a bad hair day.
It would turn up late in the afternoon at about the same time on each of the three days we spent at Paradise Valley.
It was very comfortable in our presence and we gave it raw meat and my youngest daughter was able to pat its back . .it was lovely.
Another Kookaburra got up close and personal with my grandson, which encounter resulted in a gorgeous photo. www.flickr.com/photos/184121594@N02/48686130556/in/datepo...
The Laughing Kookaburra is a bird in the Kingfisher sub-family Halcyonine and a native of eastern Australia and is almost exclusively carnivorous, preying on a variety of small animals, lizards and snakes.
It retains the same partner for life and a breeding pair can be accompanied by up to five fully grown non-breeding offspring from previous years who assist with territory defense and help raise the parent’s new young.

This wild laughing kookaburra accepted hand held raw meat and it allowed my daughter to pat its head and back.
At one stage it had a piece of raw meat in its beak and another between its legs on the balcony handrail and I could see it thinking "what do I do now". After about 20 seconds it flew off and left the first piece in a safe place and then quickly returned to collect the second piece.
It is a native of eastern Australia and belongs to the Kingfisher sub-family Halcyonine. It is almost exclusively carnivorous and preys on a variety of small animals and snakes. . . .Sigma 70 -300mm f4 -5.6 APO DG Macro.

The feeling you get when there is no pain. I captured this very low point of view of these gifts from the Pacific Ocean. iPhone image.
Everyone Laughs with you
But when you cry, you cry alone....
Crying does not mean you are weak...
It means you have a heart..... ♥
