The frogs are singing in the newly filled pond. Patient little things, theyve waited months for this. Remarkable what a difference a deluge can make. I switched back to the main water tank shortly after dawn. It was overflowing. For many weeks weve been on the reserve. Invocations to various pluvial deities, female and male, including in quaint 17th English to the one who prefers archaic words such as beseech thee, clearly had an effect. They delivered big time- over 110ml of clean heavenly water. As I drove to the Byron farmers market just before seven I was thrilled to see our two pairs of Wood ducks were now about nine or ten. They were pecking in the field opposite. I stopped the car and warned them to be wary of cats. Low mist blanketed the countryside as last nights rain began to evaporate. The reason for the early start was the need to attend the AGM of the Rainforest Information Centre at Mt Burrell, of which I am currently President. Kelvin Davies told us of an exciting project to buy Amazon rainforest to conserve it. From this Sunday at the Bangalow market I want each piece of pottery I sell to buy ONE ACRE of Amazon rainforest. Kelvin will confirm if that is possible. Wouldnt that be fantastic?
