Anticipating Easter


Counting days to Easter break, a week of rest from daily grind and time to reflect, meditate and renew our spiritual relationship with our dear Creator.

Leading towards Easter week, a couple of friends and I decided to go fasting even only for one day this week and another next week.
In my humble opinion as a Christian, the business of our lives has a tendency to rule and dominate and can affect that intimate moment of each day which we allot to commune and rest a while to worship and glorify The Lord. God is worthy of our praises for He died on the cross to buy our pardon!


Wishing all of you a spiritual-filled week.


Blessings,

Aida






The little bunny was from our local nursery, the eggs are from our canaries which didn't hatch and the nest is a roadside find when I was foraging for pine cones last Summer in Counrty Robertson.

Doesn't she has the sweetest look on her face?


The bird was from Parklea markets
The rosemary is from the garden and the bunny is a Peter Rabbit collection

She's on a bake off mission


These eggs belonged to Indian Mynas. My husband found them nesting in the guttering. I was able to save a couple for photos. FYI: Indian Mynas are considered pest: 
  • Reduces breeding success of some native parrot species. Indian mynas compete aggressively for nesting hollows and can evict native parrots from nest boxes or tree hollows and even kill eggs and chicks.
  • Compete for tree hollows with other native wildlife (e.g. possums and gliders). Indian mynas can kill small mammals and remove sugar gliders from tree hollows.  
  • Damages fruit, vegetables and cereal crops.
  • Spreads weeds such as lantana and fireweed.
  • Potential reservoir for diseases such as avian malaria.
  • Social nuisance with large roosts and nests causing noise, mess, potential allergies and fire hazards(www.daff.qld.gov.au)






  • I've added some lily pillies to add colour to my vignette
