January 10 and 11

And still in my garden for the daily photo. How long will it be before I have photographed every single bush and tree? Lets wait and see ....



 Our neighbours have planted a rainforest tree on a small ledge in their yard and right on our fence. Yes it is crazy! The only consolation is that when it flowers it attracts the rainbow lorikeets. And if I hang out of my study window upstairs, I am able to take photos of birds like this.




Photo of the sole mango that has survived on our tree. So sad.... Drought then torrential rain just does not suit this variety and fruit splits and drops to the ground. I check every morning just waiting until it ripens.

Photo was taken late afternoon and was another needing Lightroom assistance...

Wow, it's amazing that you have a mango on a tree and such a pretty bird outside. Here is just white snow.
I love mango trees and I always dreamed about growing my own mango. I tried few times, but they always died aafter a while. They aren't suitable fot pot at all.
