We popped down to have a look at the river.
An old giant tree has fallen waiting for the big rain to wash it down the river.
It is always amazing to come here after a big storm to see how mighty this river has become. In the past years it used to flood the town lower down, as we were up here near the mountains. But over time the town engineers have successfully installed storm water channels that lead the river into the ocean.
For now it is a calm river and let's have a look at some sights.
This is my favorite view as that tree signals the split in the river to the left and the right.
A footpath leads one along the river passing through dense tree spots.
Always keep an eye above for snakes in the branches.
Drat! The sunbird stopped singing when I snapped him.
Finally this Fiscal Shrike kept an eye on us as we left.
Just to be out there in nature is a great pleasure for us, as it is so different from the world that we have created around us. I see nature as a place that shows me how life was supposed to be. Instead we built concrete jungles called cities and we entrapped ourselves between plastered walls.
Our mechanical noises has replaced the birdsong and technology has entrapped us.
Freedom is to be out there far away from the busy hubris of what we call life and to breathe the fresh air in the arms of Mother nature.
Just my way of looking at things.
And That's All Friends.
