- It is Autumn and the cultural cringe demands we think of the colours of the season, for me it is the pale yellow of the first wattle in blossom. The Golden Wattle dusts the forest with spots of yellow in the green. At this time of year, the lyrebirds are busy digging up the mulch around the bedrooms and the Powerful owl can often be heard calling after dusk or in the early morning as she hunts for sugar gliders that unwittingly betray their presence with their “yip yip” sounds.

- The creaks of protest from the blackwood tree, as strips are torn out by the yellow tailed black cockatoos, is a gentle accompaniment to the harsh calls as the cockatoos call to one another.
