Day 26 2015: Tap, tap, tap...
Day 26: ...good-o then
Australia Day. Orstraya Day. Invasion Day. It is a complex day, this 'national' day of ours. It is a conversation we need to continue. Certainly there is much I think about today, every year.
It was another hot day today and, with a friend, I opted for the air-conditioned comfort of a cinema to watch new Australian film 'Paper Planes'. (Overall, a lovely little film, certainly of some interest in telling a story about Australia and Japan...work is ne'er far away...)
While I was sitting and thinking about various things (like today's pic for example) I heard a tap, tap, tap on the verandah. Earlier in the day, I had flipped some shutter speeds to try and capture butcher junior flapping about the deck.

But it was butcher senior that was responsible for the tapping. Pinched a dog biscuit from somewhere by the looks. Tapped away for a few seconds and then took flight to a nearby branch. The cam must have looked like a predator of sorts. Still, something different for today.

The movie, then rehearsal and now back to work tomorrow. The year is well and truly on the way.
