Wildlife observations around the Wynnum croquet lawns, plus two more from Wynnum

Wet weather halts play at Wynnum Croquet Club

Thursday has delivered another 'no play' day at the club, with the courts far too wet for croquet. The lawns, however, are far from empty.

No mallets, no players, and no click of croquet balls today. Just the quiet bustle of the club’s feathered regulars making the most of the rain.

Nearby, the resident magpies marched about with serious purpose, probing the soaked compost heap for a snack or two.
