What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

Hi everyone! This is my first ever forum post so do hope it lands where it’s meant to 🤣

Most days, I like to find a highlight 😊. Usually, that means during a walk with my dog, I try to spot something different, something cool or something that brings me some happiness. Whether it’s something big or small, it doesn’t matter. A highlight can be anything!

I love taking photos and would really like to share and see what you've come across. Something that made you smile, sparked your interest, or simply caught your eye. For me, it’s all the little things that count on the hard days.


To start, I’d like to share these beautiful birds I came across today. They like to appear like branches of a tree or the tree itself. They are called Tawny Frogmouth’s. Has anyone else seen these types of birds? My pics below -(hopefully not too small to see two in the tree on the left pic).

What have you seen today? ☀️💛🙏

Um what has been my highlight today?

That's a hard question!

Maybe buying more jelly at the shops. I got lemon, pineapple, raspberry and vanilla berry.

Hubby also found some jelly crystals in the cupboard when we got home. Passion fruit, orange and strawberry.

@Oaktree @Chasingsunsets @Shaz51 @Emelia8 @REDLINEZ750

Yes I do love this thread - wholesome vibes are my jam 😊

@Oaktree I haven't had jelly in aaaages, that is awesome!! Weirdly, my fav flavour was always port wine.... I don't even know if I like port wine but it's fab when it's wobbly 😂

My highlight is probably going to be the chili that's been simmering away in my kitchen last couple hours. I love cooking, but I am very slow at it, so including all the prep time (plus sleeping working cleaning and having a chill) it's probs taken me the better part of two days - plus a half if you count me soaking the beans on Thursday night 😅

I just made 2 jellies. A passion fruit and a lemon. Once they are set I will put a layer of vanilla berry on top

Alas no @REDLINEZ750 just from a google search - I do have some photos of them but from years ago so can't remember which hard drive they're on 😅

They live up around QLD, I used to go to this place called Lamington National Park with my mum to do rainforest walks and we would occasionally spot them! Plus blue bowerbirds too, and lyrebirds, and sooooo many parrots!!
