Just A Walk In The Park
Wet Gum trees show off purple, pink, red and burgundy limbs.You can hear a leaf drop in Garigal National Park this afternoon. It's quiet. It's damp and it's still. Not much wildlife to be heard, just a cricket here and there and an occasional froglet chirping and then stopping, as I approach along the track. The sun glints and polishes up the wet leaves. It has showered just recently. A bird lands in a tree nearby, shaking water droplets noisily on to the leaves below. Now it's raining again. Better head back.
