from the morning walk

eucalyptus flowers
pretty gardens

impressive jacarandas
and I have no idea what this plant is...I haven't ever seen it before. At first I thought it might have been a kangaroo paw, until I noticed the open flowers,which I have never seen on a kangaroo paw...
but I thought it was very pretty
another gorgeous jacaranda

and the plover wonders why someone had to some along and mow his paddock yesterday. I was pleased to see the plovers still there...and the someone left a small plot unmowed...good...
and I don't know what this tree is either. I have a feeling it may be a type of eucalypt. But it also is very impressive, in full flower!

The white flower tree at the end looks like what we would call a snowball tree.
Blessings to you today.
