    I have enjoyed bush walking during the last week. Sometimes as part of a group and others just exploring a new area. With my family, we joined a initiative of our council to participate in the  Wild Pollinator Count- National Pollinators Week . So we looked for bees, butterflies, moths and other pollinators insects during our bushwalk and took photos of them. It was a very nice activity that my family want to keep.
