Today's adventures started with a carpet of yellow as we walked down to the creek which I have struggled to identify and will need a revisit to pick up sample flowers and leaves.I have done that and can now tell you it is the Yellow Jacaranda, Tipuana Tipu, the Pride of Bolivia and another environmental weed in QLD - Pretty nevertheless.
A sample of the yellow Jacaranda and the hot pink leaf together with one from the King parrot baby who visited the other day.
Then onto the pure white blossom of possibly a Yellow Box Eucalypt famed for attracting bees and making superior honey and here is one complete with buzzing bee. A good sign.
That was followed by the pinks and oranges and soon thereafter ...
...a vista of receding purples as the reds slowly make their appearance on the horizon. In short a kaleidoscope, a rainbow, against all odds in this parched land and one which I am happy to walk in everyday with Dougall who takes it all in with equal interest.
