CHRISTMAS?

With Halloween barely over, the marketing machine of the shopping centres wasted no time and launched into the Christmas narrative. Is it just me or has this year just flown by like a big jet plane?

MAGPIE-LARK

The magpie-lark (Grallina cyanoleuca), also known as wee magpie, peewee, peewit, mudlark or Murray magpie, is a passerine bird native to Australia, Timor and southern New Guinea. The male and female both have black and white plumage, though with different patterns.

John Latham described the species in 1801. Long thought to be a member of the mudnest builder family Corcoracidae, it has been reclassified in the family Monarchidae (the monarch flycatchers). Two subspecies are recognised.

MOONSET

Looking towards the West at the Darebin Parklands, seeing the moon setting, while the sun is rising behind me.
