The Latest Issue of Night to Dawn 

          Plus What to do During Lockdown!

'

     Yes, Night to Dawn has reached the 40 mark with great writers such as Gerald Browning, Todd Hanks and Marc Shapiro. There's even a story by yours truly, Rod Marsden.

     Illustrations by Marge Simon and Chris Friend add a nice touch to the horrific going's on.

     It is edited by Barbara Custer who has been sailing this ship of evil now for quite some time. Among the novels put out by Barbara through Night to Dawn you have Dragon Queen. 

Of the horror anthologies that are around Second-Hand Creeps has proven popular in Canada and I reckon it is indeed a good read. 

      So what can you do while in lockdown? Well you could pick up a copy of Night to Dawn 40 or check out Dragon Queen. Then there's going for walks and generally getting exercise that way. I suggest birding in your local area.  

      With birding you don't have to come in contact with other people and it is a great way to get to know the wildlife in your area. I live on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia. Even in winter we have sightings of all kinds of birds. 

Here we have a New Holland Honeyeater found recently at Towradgi Beach.

Here we have a pair of Terns found also recently at Towradgi Beach. They say a tern should never be alone since one good tern deserves another. 

White sulphur-crested Cockatoos are with us all year round. Here is a flock of them found in Corrimal. 

Photography doesn't have to all ways be about wildlife. Here is an afternoon scene close to Corrimal Beach near the end of the day. 

Here we have a photographic study of a rather ordinary plant perhaps made less ordinary when looked upon from a design point of view.

 Sunset at Bellambi Lagoon where the lagoon meets the sea can look magnificent.

The moon can be a great subject to study.  

It always seems, though, we end up coming back to the birds and what they can offer in way of walks and entertainment. Here is a White Sulphur-crested Cockatoo in fine voice.
