Day 6 - AEDM & Nablopomo - Magpie

It was a busy day. 

I went with Michelle to her antenatal appointment. 

Then, we went shopping afterwards 

and I was back home in time to fix 

Bradley a late lunch.

I sorted my Woollies grocery order online 

for delivery tomorrow.

Then, around 4:30pm, 

we noticed a couple of helicopters hanging around our area. 

At one point, one was hovering above our house. 

Police cars went back and forth a few times and 

I heard the police dog squad was out in force too.

I checked the Queensland Police Facebook page and, 

apparently, a woman had been stabbed in a neighbouring suburb. 

The perpetrator ran into bushland and made his way through the bush 

closer to our area. 

Some time later, the helicopters moved on, 

so I'm assuming they must have caught the guy.

Quite scary being so close to home.

Each day of late, we've had a family of magpies visiting 

twice a day and doing what they do best....

demand food! 

Their baby sure can squawk loudly.

SO cute!

This prompted a very quick, rough sketch of a magpie.

I'm not happy with it but, quite frankly, 

I'm too tired to care.

Now, it's time to hit the hay, I think.
