Even though we are in the middle of winter, there are always joyous sights
to be found in various corners of the garden
The greys
and greens of the already flowering acacia and the not yet flowering
acacia fimbriata in the foreground (lovely soft feathery foliage),
combine so beautifully with the grey leaves of the eucalyptus growing behind.
This Banksia serrata
always reminds of the Big Bad Banksia Men in the story.
It's carrying quite a few of these wonderful huge flowers
This delicate little
grevillea rosmarinifolia Nana can now enjoy a less cluttered stage
now that the creeper has lost all its leaves for the winter
This one grows by
the shed too and drapes itself over the rocks
This Hakea gibbosa
has very delicate flowers.
The wind made it a bit difficult to get a good photo.
I just missed the
New Holland Honeyeater which had been feeding on these flowers
