My Neighbourhood



Today I am going to show you around my neighbourhood. Although we live in Sydney, we don’t actually live in the city. We live in a suburb to the west of the city, along the Cook's River. It used to be an orchard district, so we are blessed with rich soils and pleasant, flat lands.....


Along the river is the Bay to Bay Walk/Cycle Path. It stretches from Botany Bay, where the first fleet landed to Homebush Bay, where the Olympics were held in 2000. The path is lined by various native trees, such as the eucalyptus, as well as pine and willow trees.



There are often families of ducks paddling in the river and colourful native birds singing in the trees. Despite the pleasant surroundings, it is very quiet and you’d never meet more than 10 people in a hour’s walk along the path. Pretty flowers are seen throughout the year, even in the depth of winter...



No walk is complete without meeting a kitty. This is one of my neighbours....


He and his tabby brofur live a block away from me. They have their own individual wooden chalets in the garden. He is quite used to SS walking past and doesn’t run away from her.


This is my little house...


I am usually only allowed out here in the front garden under supervision. My domain is the back garden where it is fenced off for my safety.

You live in a lovely area! Our human would like that, lots of green space with a walk/cycle path. And cute kitty neighbours, too! :-)
