Love how you've depicted this iconic song (I'm sure more Aussies know the words to this than our national anthem!) right down to those flies, couldn't be more fitting! My fave part of 'winter' is less flies!
Like Anne, this is a song I remember vividly from elementary school. It always had a haunting pull for me, though I have never been to Australia. LOVE your illustration of the song, which captures the mystery of it so brilliantly!
-----and now its in my head and I will be humming it all night!! Yes, I too remember this from school and always loved the song. You have brought it so to life with the old man, the lantern, the flies, the lizard, makes you feel you are sitting right there next to him.
