Good morning Blogger friends; summer has arrived in the Southern Hemisphere and we've enjoyed our first rains.
Close up rains drops on my wash line ...
...and on the Banskia rose
I spent an age outdoors snapping these drops!
Gaura lindheimeri
Thandiwe's protective cage around the shrubs - against heavy dogs!
I have this beautiful shade in the Gaura lindheimeri
I used a discarded wine rack to protect my geranium from a dog bounding across it when he barks along the fence!
A teeny wildflower in the lawn
The calf showed scant interest in its surroundings!

Skabby was very hot and uncomfortable before his grooming
I stopped to photograph a profusion of wildflowers along the road
A lighter shade
Back home I snapped my Budleja
I'm linking to Saturday Critters with Eileen here
HAPPY SUNDAY TO YOU ALL !
Hello JO,
ReplyDeleteI love your flowers, the Banskia Roses are lovely. Cute shot of Skabby in the water. The calf is adorable, and the mom looks very attentive. Your budleja looks different than the kind I have here. Wonderful post. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, enjoy your day! Have a great new week ahead! PS, thanks for the comment.
The world is looking so beautiful. All those pictures are just wonderful and each one tells a story and I love all of them. You know my favorite the one with the big black dog and of course the Black Cow
ReplyDeleteHi dear Jo, lovely series of photos of the flowers and the pets. I love seeing raindrops up close. Have a safe week ahead my friend. xx
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of Scabby in the water!! And the calf is so cute...great raindrop photos!
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers, especially the Banksia roses. Rain is always a welcome sight. Here my gardens are getting ready for a winter snooze.
ReplyDeleteSummer has left us but I'm pleased to see your lovely flowers Jo. By the way, my header picture e an Avocet.
ReplyDeleteLovely.
ReplyDeleteWe too have had some rain (yay) and my banskia in that colour is a joy.
Beautiful looking calf. Skabby getting his regular cooling off swim, it must make him feel refreshed. Love those wildflowers and the water drops.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week, Jo.
I love seeing raindrops on leaves and other things after the rainfall. Love all your photos
ReplyDeleteI love to see your summer begin as ours ends. Wish I was there.
