There was pure concentration, athleticism and larrikinism. The egg and spoon races were taken very seriously, the egg throwing got very messy, the kids sack races were fast and furious and the adults wool sack races were….well…dirty. The tug-o-war was dusty, muscly, eye bulging and ferocious. Nothing like some good old fashion games to get the campsite together...

If you look close enough dragonflies can form the shape of a love heart when they are mating. Right now, Lake Towerrinning is literally abuzz with the Blue Ringed Dragonfly. Swarming above the water, their silver wings fluttering. At times the air is thick with them. They cluster onto trees, plants and reeds. A spectacular sight.

The fast and furious were camped here over the weekend to race in the WA Speed Boat Association’s annual ‘Towerrinning Cup’. Speeds reaching close to 100 miles per hour on the water while spectators kicked back in the sun, ate hamburgers and watched the power, speed and spray of high powered race boats.

Pretty in pink! And purple, red, yellow and blue. The flowers this year were always going to be amazing! No doubt you have seen them throughout the bush and on the roadsides. These pics were taken in Capercup Reserve, well worth a stroll

It’s that adorable time of year. An abundance of little lambs frolicking through the paddocks getting up to all sorts of mischief. Here are a few cute portraits from the lambs at Lakeside
