spring?


The wattle has been trying to burst into Spring for weeks,
delayed by lots of rain, now it's happening. Not sure
when it's supposed to bloom, possibly it's confused.



The rain is growing vertical gardens on all the
tree trunks, especially in Mullumbimby.
I like the palm's almost metallic sheen.

if only I was a cook: hydrangea cupcakes
check out Peter Madden's work - a few here, & here

Anie,

Way back in primary school I remember being taught that 1st August was Wattle Day, the day the wattle would be in full bloom.

Up in theBay you seem to be absolutely spot on.

Thanks Ray.. I've no clear memories of early school, beyond how the pages of the alphabet were laid out,
so I'm amazed by this feat.
