Earlier there were two enjoying a refreshing bath together, such a joy to watch that we couldn’t help but grab the camera. This little moment was captured afterwards — just one lorikeet on its own, pausing, drinking, and soaking up the calm of the garden. These are the

It’s been a little warm in South Australia this week — and just as the cool change rolled through, we were lucky enough to capture this beautiful moment.

There’s something truly special about spotting emus wandering freely with their adorable chicks trotting closely behind.

Recently, we had the chance to stop by Kapunda and see this magnificent work of art coming to life — a true celebration of South Australia’s history and community spirit. Even before it was finished, the detail was breathtaking!

It’s a stunning tribute that now stands tall as a land
