#makesmehappy — Public Fediverse posts

A shallow creek running through the deep bush, in #Blackwood #Victoria #Australia on this fine Spring day.

Ferns and #gumtrees adorned this space for hundreds of square kilometres… thriving in their natural habitat.

Earlier, #kookaburras were heard ringing out amongst the tree tops.

Blue Wrens flitted throughout the trees.

And no other person was around, for miles.

This is kinda Heaven on Earth!

Sound up!!

Here's one for #monochromemonday. It's an #unglazed #porcelain wall sculpture of an underwater seascape.

This lone #iceskater located on the #stklida #Esplinade #Australia is simply majestic.

It stands at over 10 foot tall on the Upper Esplanade and peers serenely over the tram tracks, the foreshore and bay, toward the west of our gorgeous city!

This iconic beauty celebrates the previous existence of the St. Moritz Ice Rink. This venue was a popular ice rink housed in a grand building on The Esplanade, which operated between 1939–1981.

As one of only two ice rinks in Melbourne in the 40s and 50s, it played a central role to the sport of ice hockey in Australia.

Closed in 1982, as it suffered a major fire and was then demolished.

The St. Moritz was first built as the Wattle Path Palais de Danse in 1922, a very large dance hall.

Cute #crepemyrtle to cheer your #Friyay!!

This colour in particular is still blooming in and around Melbs beautifully, so too white ones.

So bright and giving.

This gorgeous deep pink #crepemyrtle was amongst over half a dozen displaying nicely in #Camberwell #Australia recently.

So colourful. So lush.

Such is #Melbourne’s weather, ‘four seasons in one day, raining, drizzly in the morning, blue skies, sun and glorious this arvo.

The sight of this #crepemyrtle warranted a stop off and snapping.
It’s just gorgeous.

This is in its flowering prime and was surrounded by about 8 others of the same size and colour, at a care facility in #Camberwell #Australia.

Bursting with goodness and colour - OMG!!

#heaven!

🙏💖

This is an original post from earlier today. I found a curious orange growth in Victoria, Australia, in the dead of our warm summer and was surprised to be honest.

A fellow #mastodian suggested it could be a Rainbow Bracket Fungus.

And another person (thanks @marklngs.aus.social) suggested I throw it to the experts at #FungiFriday to confirm or otherwise!

Any ideas, thoughts?

TIA! 👍

Some kind of #fungus or moss variant?
