Mr Rosanna and I are both bird lovers...seriously...maybe we should be called Mr and Miss Twitcher instead. There's a relatively new exhibition currently on at Heide Museum of Modern Art by Louise Saxton called
Sanctuary - a series of natural history (read 'bird'!) illustrations made from discarded needlework pinned to tulle. Cleverly the exhibition also draws a parallel between the lost art of needlework and the vulnerability of threatened species. Some of the birds are just gorgeous!

Speaking of sanctuary, I think I've also just found my new dream home. It's called Clovelly at
26 Reid St in Balwyn and it's a fantastic example of Streamline Moderne (late Art Deco) which I have fallen in love with. All I need to do is find that spare $2 million I've stashed away somewhere...
Can you find me some of the stash as well, there are a couple of homes I'm considering as well. Haha, looks like a great house.
