See the link below to a beautifully written piece about how we can enjoy our backyard birds in this time of isolation because of the virus pandemic.

Hot in Adelaide! 41c

Today's forecast for Adelaide is 41c (celsius).

One of our sons is in Prague where it was -9c.

The birds in our backyard really appreciate  the bird baths in our garden on days like this.

As for me I will stay inside and watch the cricket on telly.

As a matter of interest the Yabbies are "running" in the Riverland.  Hot weather and high river brings then out of the mud where they "hibernate".
