The Darebin Parklands is a large park close to where I live. The Darebin council’s art and culture department commissioned the artwork called "The Nest", which was made by artists David Bell and Gary Tippett from recycled materials. The egg-shaped is quite imposing and I am sure has confused some of the birdlife, like this lonely moorhen seen at the edge of the pond.
This post is part of the Blue Monday meme.
I love that first photo, the enormous egg and the blue landscape and the color of the grasses... I haven't ever seen a photo of a moorhen before. They are pretty birds.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I think that moorhen is lovely! Manmade art cannot compete.
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing.
Happy Blue Monday, Nick.
The Moorhen is spectacular. Natures colors are the best of all.

What a beautiful blue bird! Blessings, Debbie
ReplyDeleteInteresting looking bird.
ReplyDeleteHi Nick. That moorhen must have been very bewildered by the size of that egg. Cheers J.
