January 10 - 16, 2016: Issue 246
Some pictures from the lead into New Year's Eve day and the first week of 2016 - morning swims, the tiny and feathered, deafening cicada choruses filling the air beneath sparkling gum trees, those out and about, surf clubs events and announcements and art exhibitions that show the lulls of laid back Summer days are matched by waves of activity in Pittwater!
Albums for all of these are loaded for everyone to help themselves to* for their own Family Albums in Pittwater Online News Photos site
