A vibrant spring day in the garden today. The colours of new leaf and grass are intensely green, or in some cases, red and copper.
The tulip season is done. The time to dig up and preserve bulbs is here. Incredible to think back on the coloured frenzy that descended on the garden. Very little blossom remains. The rhododendrons though are coloured white, red, pink and pale yellow throughout the garden.
Tiny rolls blissfully in the grass or reclines gracefully contemplating her lot.
There is some sadness today. The garden's owner found two little currawong nestlings dead in the garden, killed by vicious hail a couple of nights ago. We are unsure what the mother is doing on the nest. Is there another nestling?
Or is she mourning?
