Bunny Orchid



I took this three weeks ago and now all that is left is a stalk with some seed pods. It was amazing that these bunny orchids, which are the first to come up after summer, came up before the rains and then don't last long at all.

Bird Bath



This is our fourth bird bath. A lovely deep one set right outside the alfresco area. All our regulars (scarlet robins, fly catchers and honey eaters) love having an early morning bath.
