Day 89 2015: Early start, long day...

Day 89: ...turns into night

Week 5 of semester, week before the break...yes, dear reader, a week's break already. Not that we need it yet but it has to do with Easter holidays apparently. Mondays at the moment start at 4.00am, work through until about 4.30pm, back home for rehearsal, home again by about 11.00pm. Eight weeks of this to go, after next week. 

So on the way to the car park around 4.30pm, I stopped by the lake and wandered over to the other little pond where there on a branch was a white cormorant-type I hadn't seen before. Worth a look I thought.

New king of the pond

And there on the grass was a red dragonfly...adding nicely to my collection of dragonflies.

Over by the lake, the birds were sitting on the water, looking like they were gliding across foil...

and sharing a bit of we-time. 

Gliding, times two

Nice little community really, when you look.
