Hi Jayne. It was the mossy rocks that first caught my attention but then the birds showed up. I've actually posted a photo very similar to the one with the big blue/grey bird before - that patch of river must be a good feeding spot.
Hi Amy. It's pretty amazing the birds that you can see so close to the city centre. These were taken near Birrarung Marr, which is right on the fringe of the CBD.
* It has a lane named after rock band AC/DC and a swimming pool named after a Prime Minister who is believed to have drowned at sea
* Its vibrant multiculturalism
* Royal Botanic Gardens.
* Shady Caroline Street in South Yarra
* The disco balls hanging above Rankins Lane in the city
* The domed reading room of the State Library.
* The eucalyptus trees and old lamps beside the river near Fed Square.
* The huge mural spanning the length of the side wall of Dimmey's discount department store in Green Street Richmond
* The laneways, especially Degraves Street and Centre Place.
* The old terrace houses in the inner suburbs.
* The Royal and Block Arcades.
* The street art (commissioned and otherwise).
* The Victorian architecture, especially the interior of 333 Collins Street, the Olderfleet Building and the Melbourne Safe Deposit Building on Queen Street
* The view of the city at night from the Swan Street Bridge.
* The Windsor end of Chapel Street
* There's always a festival or major event happening.
Very purdy ;)
ReplyDeleteI miss seeing Melbourne's water birds. These are lovely!
