Blame Miss Eagle, below Mt Dandenong. It seems to have started there, and blown north. Brrr!<BR/>As Duncan noted, the bird was indeed all fluffed out to protect himself.<BR/>Cheers<BR/>DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-65370055208001300672008-08-11T18:23:00.000+10:002008-08-11T18:23:00.000+10:00That whistler's well fluffed up against the cold D...That whistler's well fluffed up against the cold Denis.

Still no rain, birds singing, cloud has lifted from hills. Will it last?

I went out to 8 o'clock at St Thom's and then I usually go over to Quaker Meeting for Worship at East Ringwood - but no way I was even driving to ER. Just came home. Day got colder and bleaker. Some roads closed in the Dandenongs, so I hear, and people were warned against travelling anywhere that was susceptible to black ice. Stay home, the policeman said. Rained and rained all night. Bit of a lull now at 10.38am Monday but don't know if there will be a break. Still cloud low on the hills behind the railway station. Brrr.......<BR/><BR/>Blessings and blissAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05972285659958872775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-42647139312012665672008-08-11T10:02:00.000+10:002008-08-11T10:02:00.000+10:00Hi MosuraYou have a wicked sense of humour - nice ...Hi Mosura<BR/>You have a wicked sense of humour - nice work.<BR/>DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-78904756010018011242008-08-10T23:41:00.000+10:002008-08-10T23:41:00.000+10:00His wings are going full-bore but his feet are fr...His wings are going full-bore but his feet are frozen to the branch :-)<BR/><BR/>Beautiful bird!
