My walk today

Today was a lovely winter's day with sunshine. It was ideal for a walk. The weather bureau had predicted rain!
It was nice to see some water laying on the ground. Much different to summer when it is so dry.





The clouds were big and fluffy and the reflection of the sun made them stand out.


A vew of the Dandenong Ranges. In the background you can see the television towers.





It is the time when the lovely wattle trees are in bloom.





A pair of Galahs were sitting high in the gumtree. They are such a pretty pink colour.

My walk last week continued

These are some more of the photos I took on my walk along the Warburton Railway walking path.









On this particular stretch of the path they were doing some maintenance work.




I was lucky to see this Yellow-breasted Robin. The robin kept still long enough for me to take the picture.




The grape vines have lost their colourful leaves.








It is always a very pleasant time spent walking along the path with different things to see.





The remains of an old tree. Still interesting to look at.

My walk last week

This is the remains of the Seville Railway Station which was part of the line that ran from Lilydale to Warburton. The old railway line has been made into a recreational walking/bike path for the public to use.

A couple of buildings that have seen better days.






It was a chilly day and walking is just the thing to warm you up!










Two horses resting





The birds make use of the remainder of these trees for their habitat,








The trunks of the trees are all shedding their bark.
I will have more pictures in my next post.
