Rockingham, Western Australia

As well as having beautiful beaches in Rockingham our town council has been establishing a beautiful park on land that was initially a horse racing track and then a large sports field where fairs and circuses were some-times held. I especially love the sculpture in the pond as it shows off our local marine life...the park is situated between Patterson Rd, Flinders Lane and Kent and is still called Rockingham Oval...









It's bright and sunny now as Summer approaches but I took the following photos in Winter around the council offices where there are lots of deciduous trees...I really like the contrast...

There are English church bells in the tower and we can hear them on occasion from home...


 pelicans flying back to Penguin Island in the late afternoon...




these trees are already in full foliage again now but look so awesome in Winter...


Hope you enjoy looking at my photos...all is well here and thanks to all who commented on my last post,
Love from Sue

  1. Very nice. Before I noticed it was a wave, I thought it was part of a dragon.

  2. Gosh, that fountain is certainly creative. Love it! Tell them to paint the park benches before they deteriorate. Often they dont notice until someone tells them. Great Photos.

  3. One of my favorite things about the 'blogging universe' is the opportunity to see things I might not get to otherwise! Love the photos and the little trip to Australia! It's on my bucket list but you never know! What fun! :)
