Nice photos M-L,you should try get up at 6 am and see if it's colder then it is now,haha. At least it's a change form the hot weather you've been having.
Thanks Nathan, is that the time you get up? I take the dogs outside about 6.30, this morning it was 4*, my feet are still frozen, I'm not good in the cold.Is it too much to ask for a reasonable 25*?
(BTW, I didn't go outside for those photos, I saw the Thrush, but then decided to post some photos I prepared earlier, still taken with the SLT-A55V and the shorter lens)
Often I get up around then and scoot down to my lake to have a quick walk around before I have to get back,,there's heaps of birds down there in the morning(usually).
4 - thats a heat wave, we had a -3 with a big frost, the other day (at 0730) might move to warmer climes when I am old and decrepid (just decrepid not old yet)
-4!! You were looky!! When I was a lad we had to walk 20 miles through snow to get to school, eat loonch in frost 20 miles high then return home on hands & knees in dark into a howling 100 mph wind off the South Pole. And all we had for tea was ice blocks!

Dale, can we swap? I'm both, old and decrepid
Peter, it might be cold at your place, but you get "Canberra weekends"

We'll have to see if we can break our record of -10C while your here
and maybe throw in a wind chill factor of -18C

I digress but this weekend is a Queensland weekend - will 2 days be enough to thaw out?
