Valley light and gorgeous discoveries

Just for a brief moment yesterday the early morning light was just right to silhouette (below) the CBD of Brisbane some 80klms away.

But it  was another construction that caught my eye this morning - the intricately built bower of a Satin Bowerbird. And it would seem the male bird's efforts had paid off as there was a female bird very interested in the bower with it's violet flowered forecourt.

Tree haven Way is still offering colour even though we are having dry and some very windy weather.
