Bute Silo Art and Kadina Water Tower

 Today I took a trip up to Bute at the top of the Yorke Peninsula to look at their Silo Art.  It was finished in August last year and and was chosen to depict the local fauna and industry.   Bute is a mainly agricultural area   The main painting is of a rooster and a local girl.



The detail that artists manage to include is really amazing 





I also called in to Kadina, which has a small water tower in the town centre that has been painted.  The subjects are a girl holding some copper and wheat and a train. 









New toy

I treated myself to a new toy yesterday - A new camera.   and of course, I had to try it our, so I took it with me on Kobe's walk to see if we could get some interesting photo.  It was a bit later than we normally walk, so there were very few birds around.  There weren't many flowers either, so I made do with some blossom, and gum tree bark, and Kobe of course!!




Back home in the garden, the Hebe's are flowering well, and the bottlebrush is just starting to bloom again




And then the afternoon Qatar Airways flight from Doha passed overhead on its way to the airport
