Sunday Selections #756

September 07, 2025

Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.

A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.

Nothing rude or vulgar though.

And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us.

The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look.

Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally.

Not sure if Elephant's Child will be joining us, but we have hope.

Beginning today with a drawing from Gen, age 3

it's a cat! She has only recently learned to draw circles and other shapes.

small mounds of yellow daisies in the house for sale just up the road a bit

I moved my porch potplants to where the rain could water them, then lifted incorrectly when I put them back and am now suffering from that sprain, not too badly, it's been ten days and moving is easier now.

spotted this nice bird bath/fountain/whatever while walking back down Glen Osmond road the day before the potplant incident.

and a couple of "Henry's" guarding this gateway.

Henry is the name of the Lion who is mascot to the city of Braunschweig in Germany where Iris lives.

this one has fish

and this one shows a writer at his des while animals sleep in the foreground

a story on our TV news recently had me snapping pictures of the screen,

fossilised remains have been found of what was once a very large fish

one of the archaeologists who are very carefully unearthing the bone pieces and fragments,

another section, but I have forgotten which end

an overhead view

and this is what they think the fish looked like. There was mention of the largest eyes ever seen in a fossil this old.

this mound of foam, looking very much like shaving foam, was at our Henley Beach recently, causing the beach and cafes to be closed as it is part of the awful algae bloom currently beseiging our beautiful coastline, for miles and miles, or kilometres if you prefer.
