Panning

Hi! Gorgeous day down here in Tassie!
We took Emma out to the spot where we pan for sapphires and had a nice couple of hours in the creek.

We found lots of zircon, and happily also a few nice little chips of sapphires! We have yet to separate them out, but planning on getting a photo or 10 when we do!

Check out this sweet conical nest that was in the tree above us!

The rest of the afternoon – in between chicken wrangling, watering etc I made a batch of raspberry jam (clearing another spot in the freezer!) and made up a double batch of lemon cordial out of the lemons we picked up from Ruby’s the other day.
Hope your day was just as nice as mine!
Cheers!
