I guess you weren't expecting this ... an Australian animals/birds version of "The Twelve Days of Christmas"
On the Twelfth Day of Christmas my true love gave to me
12 parrots prattling
11 numbats nagging
10 lizards leaping
9 wombats working
8 dingoes digging
7 possums playing
6 brolgas dancing
5 kangaroos
4 koalas cuddling
3 kookaburras laughing
2 pink galahs
And an emu up a gum tree .... ( this of course is highly unlikely!)
The tag is stamped and hand drawn over a computer generated text.
Today here it was 30 degreesC - so, Christmas has a very different feel to it from the cold and wintry scenes many of you experience in the northern hemisphere. Hope you all have a great week! Wilma
That sure is different! Sounds nice and warm too. I'm freezing today!!
ReplyDeleteLoving the tag and your version of the song! Valerie
ReplyDeleteTehehehe, thats such a fun tag. Must look up a couple of those animals though, no idea what a brolga is, for example.
ReplyDeleteA real fun tag and a very different list of gifts

ReplyDeleteBrilliant!! I love the idea of an emu up a gum tree. A wonderful tag. Carolyn xx
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your Australian animals take on this challenge! Your artwork is perfect too. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteWilma I have prattling parrots, leaping lizards and an even bigger gaggle of kookaburras that I would be delighted to share with you. I pulled this poem out too but went somewhere else.
ReplyDeleteBe wary of those galahs and happy Christmas to you!
PS the Kookaburras timing leaves a lot to be desired - 3 o'clock in the morning they are still partying.
Fabulous tag, love the idea.
