ALBERT'S VIEWThe view from Albert's window in Mt Martha, Victoria, Australia.

"Our front window - looking out across the lawn on a welcome rainy Sunday. We daily feed Sulfur Crested Cockatoos and other parrots that visit our garden. [We] Had 20 plus Cocky 's on the lawn at once, very noisy, shrieking loudly, but you have only to see them flying past to be overawed with their majesty & beauty .

This year the Cocky 's have not moved on, as in previous years, probably because of the drought and the resulting lack of food. Also there's a lot of building going on and many open areas are going under tarmac & concrete.

The palms are European Fan, Chinese Windmill & just out of a sight a Chilean Wine. Our garden is approx 1700M2 & we are about 70 kms east of the centre of Melbourne on the Mornington Peninsula"

Kristy,

I run a series of shots in my blog The Lives And Times... featuring shots out my window. I'm not picking up how to get shots to you. If you could let me know I'd appreciate it.
