With my labour of love … another popular subject are birds… class Aves .
We are certainly grateful to the many contributors and authors on this topic, including Dorothy Latimer , whose many photographs and blogs have been a joy to many.
With her first blog Trip of a Lifetime… Dorothy has provided us with a story book of blogs including some great reads such as CBC… fostering , A Home Like Alice… , Reflected Moments , Flight of the Black Swan , A bit of Ruff at the Poo Ponds , It was all over in three frames , Wish I could fly… being just a sample of her great blogs. Of course her bird photos appear throughout AusEmade, in the main Bird section to birds in selected destinations of Australia.
