Some say that thirteen is an unlucky number. Will these parents think the same? (Look very well because there are 13 goslings not 12). At this time of the year, the lake always has a lot of algae and the remnants of leaves and branches from autumn and winter. It doesn't help that it hasn't rained much. (Even if isn't a good photo, looks better in large). For those that can’t see number 13, see tag on photo).
Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!

Noisy Miner (Manorina melanocephala)
The Noisy Miner clan at the Woodville Football Oval continues to increase. This one had swooped me as it thought I had got too close to its offspring, which I hadn't noticed at this point.

Excited to discover a nest and now chicks in a big Banksia just over the fence,
My mother, who died a week ago, and my father, who died in 2006, at a carnival ball in Memmingen in 1954. My mother was 22 years old then, my father 27 (their birthdays were later in the year), and I was about ten months old at the time. Certainly my grandmother took care of me that evening.
Sad to say, Lolita passed away today. Without her, I would have never met Iwona ( long story about a feisty cat that got away from Iwona and moved in with my parents for a while). We often said she was the architect of our relationship, but we also just called her Mamma because two of our other cats are her babies.
Bye Bye Mamma, your big innocent eyes, baby doll face, and sweet disposition will be missed.

Adult Great Horned Owl and parent of the owlet shown in previous posts keeping a watchful eye (literally one eye) on the kid.
Always nice to see females with eggs! They're such good mothers though that they're infuriating, as they constantly lean towards the lens, to protect their brood!!
Upton Magna - Shropshire
Elasmucha grisea can reach a length of 6.5–8.8 millimetres (0.26–0.35 in). Males are smaller than females. These medium-sized shieldbugs are usually brown-reddish, but there are also gray (hence the Latin species name grisea) and green-brown specimen. Connexivum is black and white. The upperside is covered with several dark dots. The scutellum usually shows an evident black patch. The ventral face is largely punctuated with black. Lateral corners of the pronotum are simply beveled. The front corners of the pronotum show a more pronounced tooth. Antennas are blackish in the male, dark brown in the female. This species, like other parent bugs possess methatoracic and abdominal glands, which discharge a foul smelling secretion. This secretion is used to deter potential enemies and is sometimes released when the bug is disturbed.

What more could any daughter ask for than parents who committed to one another for LIFE , through hard times and good times, were amazing role models for 6 children .I feel like the luckiest women having them as my parents . Today and always I love them more than I could ever express in words !!!
First Photo is of them the day they were married
A brother and I stopped at “Our Parents Place” to reminisce for a bit before going on a cruise together. It was a beautiful day and by chance we wanted to get a couple photos of our street rods. We live a few hundred apart and wanted to pay our folks the respect of a visit. We had a blast and our folks never said a negative word. Gratitude and Kindness paid off again.
Swan parents - last week at Horn Pond. Thanks to the local Instagram community, I know at least half the eggs have hatched since then. I haven't had a chance to go back yet to try to see the babies - maybe sometime today, depending on the rain.
