AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

More Scarecrow People


Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ October is Scarecrow Festival time on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria.
There are many fascinating interpretations of scarecrows to be found around Red Hill and the mountain of Arthurs Seat.
These handsome people are sitting on a small fence watching Arthurs Seat Road at Red Hill.

Scarecrow love is grand
Tickets on their rough beauty
Worth a smile or two

These straw filled beings couldn't even scare a real crow. These two are obviously inseparable and devoted to each other. The company they keep is friendly and a lovely pair they are while sitting on the fence rail...

Definitely a cute scarecrow couple! Molly's afraid of the stuffed figure outside a neighbor's house. Perhaps I'll share some pictures later this week.
Hugs and blessings,
