Gloomy

It was gloomy and overcast all day, no real sunrise this morning and it stayed that way all day.

It was a good day to get out and about, not too hot which was nice. We ventured to the butterfly house just south of Coffs Harbour for a couple of hours.

We were lucky enough to see one of the new butterflies emerge from it's chrysalis.

We also found some stick insects in there.

We left there and headed off to the botanic gardens for a wander around. There was a rainbow lorikeet near the entrance, a little cautious for me to be so close but eventually I got close enough to get a couple of nice pictures.

There are many paths to wander and get lost on. There is a lot to see in the gardens.

I headed back to the same place as this morning near the jetty to try and get the same spot, didn't quite get it - but the day ended as it had begun.
