Nature table

We have a wonderful nature table that is used to display many treasures and finds. Its arrangement used to be part of my job description but I am pleased to see that the boys are preferring to do this their own way more and more.

last of the love-birds(we once had five!)and a very noisy piano accompanist!

our one remaining very timid budgie also lives close by.

haven't got a clue what this is(ds says its a gall)but it was found at the Barossa gold fields.

one highly prized butterfly

honey comb found down by the river(it includes real dead bees the boys assure me!!)
