    1. At the moment it is getting harder and harder. Will welcome a good downpour of rain to deep water the garden and fill the dam.
      So glad you enjoyed a bit of a walkabout A-C 🙂

      1. I owe you an apology, Brian. For some reason I have been believing your home was in South Africa. It was only when I saw the post on Bush Babies I gave my head a shake and realised. 😦

  12. A true delight to take a photographic stroll though your garden, Brian, oh and… I just love the tree in pink bloom, it shines so beautifully! I’m also very glad you always give the exact name of the flowers and birds, butterflies… a joy to see them all so colorful, thank you! 😀
