Jovial native

A kookaburra that visited my garden last week. We quite often hear them laughing from the tree-tops during the day, and with a bumper local lizard population I suspect they will be around for quite a while.

Lavender, of which I have copious amounts in my garden to attract the bees.

Well a lot has happened since my last post just over two months ago, and unfortunately my camera hasn’t captured much of it at all. Thanks to all the regular viewers who have patiently waited for me to get my act together and post some more. With any luck, I will have eased back into my regular every other day posting cycle within a couple of weeks. Thanks again.
This shot is of one of the numerous rose flowers blooming in my new garden at the moment. I’m not a big fan of roses in the garden, but my new house has come with many of them and they have been well maintained and look great in bloom.

Noxious Vintage

Ashley — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 12:37:27 +0000

Cape sorrel (Oxalis pes-caprae) a native to South Africa and introduced to Australia in 1841 and declared a noxious weed soon after in the 1850′s. In South Australia it is known by the name of Soursob due to its pleasantly sour taste. Here it mingles with next seasons wine grapes in McLaren Vale, South Australia.
