With spring almost upon us all the trees and flowers and birds and animals around us are right onto spring things. After a good writing session at Zamia Cafe today I heard a mallard duck calling as I came out. Looking up I spied this one calling loudly from his perch in the lovely old marri tree next to Zamia. How on earth he managed to navigate between the branches to land there? But looking for mates by standing around on tree branches and calling seems to be what these lovely birds do as spring approaches:-)
