Bird’s rump

Birds are always posing…

… till you take your camera.

Then they show you their tails.

Like they agreed about that with each other!

Or they fly away.

They are created to show their tails.

Or they just hide behind branches.

C’mon!

It’s terrible!

Just signs

This is about signs. The funniest thing is that they are everywhere except the places where you realy need them. Once we even got lost!

 

Kai atvažiavom čia, pačioj pradžioj, galima sakyt, ženklai visur akis badė. Ant kiekvieno kampo. Menkiausia proga. Tai ir rinkom jų nuotraukas. O parašyt kaupėmės apie visokius keistus dalykus, kvailas taisykles, draudimus, biurokratines džiungles ir pan. Taip taip, čia irgi tokio džiaugsmo yra. Tai va kaupėmės ir po truputį pildėm. Nes gal visgi įdomu kam nors.

O iliustracijų tam neturim, tad tiesiog sudedam ženklų įvairovę, kuri visgi labai ribota ir menkoka – neturint fotoaparato po ranka visada pasitaiko geresnių vaizdų.

Truputį apie ženklus: kelių eismo ženklai dauguma su užrašais. Net jei neatsimeni, ką ženklas reiškia, dažniausiai šalia būna paaiškinimas.

Patys australai  ženklus truputį ignoruoja. Eina per raudoną šviesą ir pan.

kaip aborigienai gyvena lauke o australai nespaudzia ranku

We saw a similar one next to a playground!

Un koala, dos koalas, tres koalas …

On a sunny Sunday we went to Belair National Park. This is the oldest park in South Australia.

We chose the longest trail. Angry miners everywhere are the same.

There were only few people in that trail. Not busy at all. We passed an Echo tunel, not spacious one.

Grey fantail.

Somewhere trail was pretty steep and stony. On the top of the hill we found a very small waterfall. Or shoul it be called waterdrop?

The result of rainy winter – green grass.

Ok ok. This is the best thing we found in Belair. It looks like someone came and put them in the trees in some artistic way.

The first koala didn’t give a shit about us.

The second one looked very tired after yesterday.

Koala number three. Too busy.

The fourth looked at us for a second and took a nap again.

What are you looking at?

The fifth one. I wonder, what were they doing yesterday.

Fresh wind was touching her hair… Well, her ears. The sixth Koala, we met on our way.

The last one. Nothing new.
That’s why we say: Lazy like Koala.

Handorf

After walking in a park, we visited Handorf.

It is a little town in the hills, settled by Lutheran migrants many years ago.

Pretty cozy but overcrowded with tourists. And why, oh why they make terrible shinny signs in such a place? They just don’t fit there. Of course we didn’t made photos of them.
Left – a horse and internet café. Right – an exterior of a little shop-gallery.

Houses are different than those in Adelaide.

A young magpie was lucky enough to find a fat worm.

Cosplay

Few weeks ago there was some Anime and computer games festival in the Adelaide Festival Centre (yes, the same one where we drank too much wine during the Festival of wine). City got full of strange and interesting characters.

Pokemon with handbag!

I think that pixel man should win the Cosplay.

Totoro!

Hairspray.

Some more.

Shoes!

Modern princess Xena (sorry, anime fans, that I’m not sure about all characters) rolling tobacco.

Super Mario!

That’s all.
