IN THE GARDEN
I have been out in the garden in the last few days...in the cooler hours of the day...that's before 9am and after 6pm...admiring the garden...the buckinghamia (ivory curl) .... well, mainly doing the edges...a job overdue! the frangipani flowers hang on for a bit longer...the rain seems to have disappeared ..here at least! Not up north. By the sound of it, there is 60% of the state under flood! The other night in the middle of the night, I could hear plunking noises outside the window...not rain..not the possum. I realised that there must be some seeds on the fan palm outside. Next day I looked up..yes! also the asparagus fern is doing likewise! Ah, that looks better....don't you think? So while I listened to the gorgeous little butcher bird singing outside I had a cup of Chai and some morning tea! And sent some emails, played some scrabble, and tried to cool off! [I had to get that shot of the bird , by hanging out the window and pointing upwards]!!
