Back to needing colour

After my volunteer shift on Wednesday afternoon, I made a last-minute decision to call in at the Reader Rock Garden. Managed to get a few photos, despite it being so windy. Another cool, heavily overcast day here. As the day progresses, I know I am going to find it more and more difficult to remember what day and time it is. I stayed up all last night, as it was the annual Dawn Chorus at 3:30 a.m. this morning, in Weaselhead. We were so lucky that it stayed dry most of the time, with just a few raindrops and a few flashes of lightning. Haven't yet heard how many species we saw/heard, but the number of species and actual birds was way down. I think we must be insane to travel from different parts of the city at this unearthly hour (I left home around 2:45 a.m.), but it's quite fascinating to witness the start of a brand new day for our feathered friends.
