Midsummer

I and Nicholas started our day very early...as it's Midsummers day and there are lots of festivities going on around the island, we headed to a tiny Isle that is adjacent to St Francis, where I knew we could sit and observe without being disturbed.  I wish I had time to draw the anemones, that are native only to that specific area, but alas the birds won again, and I spent most of the day observing and taking notes on the glorious Cerulean Plover and the cheeky Anemone Honey Eater. Nicholas found a beautiful lace stone which he placed in his pocket carefully as it's very fragile...
