This was the view from our kitchen window. There was a bird table attached to one of the trees and we left pans of water on the ground as well. There were always birds round the water; Musk Lorikeets, Adelaide Rosellas and all sorts of honeyeaters. The only cat we ever saw on the property ended up in Dead Cat No 2. It was shot just  to the left of the picture.

I was still struggling to find the right technique for grass. This was done with thick paint and a pointed stick and then glazed over with additional colour.

It will be obvious that I have never been happy with leaves.
