Discoveries with Dougall 32 – Hot Dog's last day of summer 28th Feb 2021.


Today’s sweaty offerings were found in 32 C heat and high humidity which made both of us tire and sweat. Dougall looked more than a bit fed up with me. Why do you walk in the midday sun ? Answer, so I can keep you off the lead, as no one else is crazy enough to be out here. Here he is- had to find a clear little stream for him to enjoy. Doesn’t he look thoroughly fed up ? 

The beautiful bark of a baobab tree- almost like a silk weave. 

A blue duck looking over at us
A gum blushing orange 
An unusually coloured frangipani – blood red 
Fungi popping up everywhere
More Cactus then house – great burglar deterrent ! 
The summer draws to a close, it was wetter than usual and hotter than usual but lovely in its intensity and its warmth. I know I respond well each time I see the sun outside my window eager for a few more discoveries with a less hot dog.
