The English Electric Canberra is a British first-generation jet-powered medium bomber manufactured in large numbers through the 1950s. The Canberra could fly at a higher altitude than any other bomber through the 1950s and set a world altitude record of 70,310 ft (21,430 m) in 1957. Due to its ability to evade the early jet interceptors and its significant performance advancement over contemporary piston-engined bombers, the Canberra was a popular export product and served with air forces of many nations.

Canberra is the capital city of Australia and the seat of its Parliament. it is an entirely planned city, designed by the architects Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahoney Griffin.. Their plan featured geometric motifs and was centred on axes aligned with topographical landmarks such as Black Mountain, (shown in the photograph) Its mountainous location makes it the only mainland Australian city where snow-capped mountains can be seen in winter, With significant areas of natural vegetation, along with introduced species, Canberra lives up to its reputation as "The Bush Capital"

Australian National Botanic Gardens, Canberra. The male Gang-gang Cockatoo, a distinctive and charming bird native to southeastern Australia, is easily recognizable by its slate-grey body and bright red head and crest. These cockatoos, known for their unique, creaky call resembling a cork being pulled from a bottle, primarily inhabit forested areas and woodlands, feeding on seeds, fruits, and insects. They are monogamous and nest in tree hollows, often returning to the same nesting sites year after year.
The bells were only ringing occasionally to mark the time. I'm spending a day here in Canberra, visiting an old friend, before going further afield. I've been lucky to have had a few short breaks recently. They all come at once sometimes
