Our Own Backyard

My favourite place is to go to my rock cubbies in the middle of my favourite paddock         

It is in at the back of our farm in the muddiest spot. From our back yard I can see the local dormant volcanoes of Mt rouse Mt Napier and Mt Eccles and they look very lovely.

Guess What I went to get a pic of our caves and got bogged two times so I’ll go back on a drier day.

 I live in the town of Hawkesdale. I get woken up early from the magpies talking to each other, Kookaburras laughing and other birds chirping loudly. I pull back the curtains and see galahs and parrots walking and flying about through our colourful garden. They also fly through the plantations of gum trees.  

My family owns the paddock next door which is now muddy because of the rain. I keep my pony in it but she doesn’t mind the mud we have built a shelter and she has a coat on to keep her warm. Sometimes she somehow takes it off. ‘Cheeky Girl’  I love to ride her. I can canter and trot on her walk when I am on her.I ride her around the town on all the tracks. She shows off when we pass other horses.

 

I also have a cat called ‘Stripes’ sometimes I call her a rat because she digs her claws into me. 

 

As I said before it is very wet and muddy, it is also very cold. In the summer you can smell the freshly cut grass, and when the sun goes down the sunset is amazing. 

I am a student at Hawkesdale p-12 college and I travel by bus to school because I live at Koroit. I like my backyard because I have my personal space when I am upset or something and I also have a favourite wall where I play tennis.

The photographs that I have got have been taken by my sister. She wants to be a photographer.

In my backyard I love my scooter, tennis racket and my bikes.  There is a photo of a volcanic rock that I found at my favourite place which is Tower Hill. You can see the photos of these below. I love my backyard I hope you do too. I hope that your backyard is as good and fun as mine.I hope that your backyard is as good and fun as mine.
