Christmas Lunch 2023

We had Christmas lunch with our son and his family in Melbourne but unfortunately it was too cold, wet and windy to enjoy their marvellous deck. The deck backs onto a stand of natural forest where cockatoos, lorikeets, possums (including one with baby) come to feed. It's only a small stand of trees and the neighbours' homes can just be seen between the vegetation but with a glimpse of the Dandenong Ranges in the distance it feels like a restful oasis far from human habitation. 

I sketched this from the safety of the dining room.
