A*B*C in the garden today...



Arrowroot waiting to be planted

 

Beetroot and Carrot
(and rockmelon and watermelon
and salad greens and pumpkin
and so many more)
seeds to sow
   
Death

whenever I find a departed wing I think of this from Rabindranath Tagore:


'The butterfly counts not months but moments and has time enough' 


 

 Eggs (Fresh!) for lunch
 


Grevillea and Helichrysum - an Indigenous sub-species
(did you see how I sneakily snuck that 'i' in there?
)

 

Japanese Maple and Kangaroo Paw 
(a favourite treat for the Eastern Spinebill)


Lichen on Melaleuca bark


 

Naughty Sarah sitting On (eg squashing) the Peppermint Pelargonium!
(sooo very NAUGHTY! and by her expression you can tell she KNOWS it's naughty!)

 Quince leaf with hole

 







Raspberries - the first of the season
(file under YUM!) soon we will be swimming in the delicious berries




  








Sandpit and abandoned Tractor


Unfinished business 
(that path to my studio still hasn't been started... sigh.. 
file under -Very frustrating)


  

there's Whipper snipping to do EVERYWHERE!

 %$#*#$ STINK BUGS ON MY CITRUS!!!!!!!!!!  
(an X-rated response)
die you horrid bugs DIE!

 Yellow Dahlia...
(file under 'things that make me smile')


 Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz




(Brimmer agrees it's been a busy day)

  7. hee hee heee - I don't know the spelling either - but I reckon you must have caught some of my random thoughts - 'cause the word 'abecedarium' was rattling around my head as I nodded off to sleep last night!
