Aussie Christmas in July
A walk amidst wildlife…
One Aussie “Christmas in July” 🎄
my bright eyes did see 👀
Twelve cows a-grazing 🐄
Eleven orchids swaying
Ten magpies singing
Nine horses gazing
Eight calves a-drinking
Seven topknot pigeons
Six kookaburras 🎶
Five lorikeets
Four pink galahs
Three ghost gums
Two hopping hares
And a wallaby with her joey. 🦘
🤗
Originally inspired by an early morning walk past a tree full of screeching white cockatoos enjoying their breakfast. Such a beautiful way to start my day… blessed by all of these lovely sights. However, I can’t vouch for the accuracy of the numbers listed above! Yesterday, we celebrated “Christmas in July” at work which reminded me of the “12 Days of Christmas”. 🎄
An alternate last line is:
“A dirt bike on a Ute tray”… but I couldn’t resist the wallaby and her joey!🤭
