Beware

Children frockling
Sunshine, blue gums, Billabong
Crocodile lurking. 


 Billabong: A streambed filled with water only in the rainy season

This is soooooo cute. I love the way it goes from the joy of children playing to the thought of a lurking croc. Thank you for telling me what a billabong is... I heard the word on Crocodile Dundee but never knew what it meant. Please keep up your unique talent.
