In the Garden

The garden is looking very nice at the moment, and the orchard is a sea of blossom... a fact not wasted on the local corella population :(









Trying to do some work at the computer today - this is the amount of chair that Kiki can spare for me to sit on .... apparently!!



Met a puppy today - my mailman Steve's new (female) mail buddy, Trixie.  Good to know my letters will be in such good hands!!

The Garden in Bloom and a Trip to Sydney

The garden is ablaze with colour at the moment, and the orchard is waist deep in flowers!!

These are pear blossoms:




These are Nashi pear blossoms:



Bless it the flowering quince is having another go at blossoms after the crimson rosellas stripped it of its first flush.




The wisterias are also in bloom, the blue in the more usual flowers first and then the leaves:



And the pink in 'everything all at once' mode:


Whenever we are outside Morse wants to know what we're doing??


Yesterday we drove to Sydney to deliver Yoo Yoo and Jesse to their new home with Liz and Tori.  Their block is quite steep and backs onto a reserve, perfect for alpacas and the boys settled in quickly to their new surrounds while we enjoyed a delicious lunch before our homeward journey.




We also got to meet the delightful Cricket :




Who also comes in a lumpy mat version:



And dear little Scooter, who bears more than a passing resemblance to a meerkat!
