For those of us for whom our gardens are special, or for whom our gardens aided in our recovery whether physical or emotional, post your photos of your garden that bring you joy.Cassia fistula (Golden Shower Tree)Delonix Regis (poinciana)Every afternoon these trees are visited by lorikeets and other nectar feeding birds.

Oh gosh, all your gorgeous gardens put my little one to shame. In my defense, I've only lived here 2 years and this garden was purely large trees when I moved in. I was planning on pulling out the eggplants today, but its a bit hot atm. My little lemon tree is growing sideways because the neighbours trees blocked the sun ... until he cut some branches for me :) Consider these "before" photos haha :wink:

Our resident Bower Bird has constructed a new bower beneath the Fiddlewood tree. It is a magnificent construction that has taken over three weeks and involved the collection of much useful material.He is very proud of his bower, he displays and struts around and through it.The two females he attracted through his dancing, strutting and building show no interest in the bower, they turned their backs, however yesterday a third female turned up and was very taken with it, showing much admiration in his building and decorating skills. He is definitely, according to her, Husband Material.We were able to inspect and photograph the bower today. The male Bower Bird has used pebbles, rubble and broken pieces of Hardieplank wall cladding to build pathways in and out. There is a Bush Chook (Emu) beer can (no idea where he got that from) along with screws, rivets, nails and a piece of blue carpenter's chalk (husband did wonder where that went from the new laundry building site) decorating and lining the surrounds.Take a look at the magnificent structure that has been built, just for courting and wooing his bride to be!

Lovely sunny day here! Lots of bird chatter in the garden. Picked flowers to brighten the room and Daphne for the bathrooms, oh what a perfume!

The good news is our Hoya is thriving!!
