Last summer was cool and wet. Crops did poorly and plants didn’t waste their time flowering much. So it is with delight that I present this shot of the tree behind our place.
Alas, the light isn’t ideal and since it’s not in our yard it’s hard to get close.
As might be expected, it is a magnet for nectar feeding birds. I particularly like the lorikeets but they are very hard to get a shot of, seeming to know when the camera is pointed at them and moving out of shot.
Well, a wattle-bird made itself available, briefly.
There have been wrens, too, but those flitty little creatures are hard enough to capture out in the open, let alone under the shade of a healthy canopy.
Until I can get some better shots, here’s a Bulbul for good measure.
