Bush Turkey Posted December 13, 2009 (edited) Now thats the part that interests me. Are you planning on heading back and searchin thru this wonderland you have stumbled upon? Do you know if its a feral patch or someones overgrown backblock? yeah im chuckin a sicky today to go back there i dont know if ill search the wild cacti across the road as its a overgrown block for a constuction company. The main garden used to be a public garden and had a nursery but not since the buddhist took over. i thought it was still a puplic garden cause there were signs to ample parking until the buddhist asked what i was doing in broken english. yeah i took a pic of a brug but a crappy pic. ill take my camera today. brug ???
