Max had just fallen asleep in the pram as I'd finished shopping at Kingsbury market and there was no way that I was going to wake him to get into the car, so instead I wandered around the Sports Field Lake at LaTrobe Uni for an hour.
Half a dozen Darters were circling high in the sky before deciding where to land, a lone black swan followed me - possibly in the hopes of food, and after finding a nice shady spot to sit, I let the birds come to me.

A family of Dusky Woodswallows flew around me and then settled on some branches to preen and sun themselves. It looked like quite a precarious spot to be lying down and stretching ones wings!

This is the black swan that kept a careful eye on me.
