We have also discovered that the old Weaver nests hanging in the front garden have been recycled by Red Headed Finches. They have moved in, lined the nest with all sorts of softness that they could find and we can hear their babies chirping away…. terribly cute…
With all the gloom of winter surrounding us at the moment, what a delight to have this beautiful bloom growing on our front veranda, I love it, it looks so perfect and bright compared to all the frost bitten plants that now inhabit our garden. This one colourful flower is like a ray of hope that spring and summer will soon be here. I can already feel the lengthening of the days and the sun is rising earlier and setting later.
Remember these???
Wow, we used to make so many of these when I was at school,(I’m calling them these because I can’t remember what they are called) they are tremendous fun! If you would like a tutorial just let me know and we will put one together soon:) Oh and if you know what they are called, please do let us know so that the tutorial can have a name and also we would really just like to know the name because this mama has long forgotten it…
I leave you with this photo of our Charlie enjoying a piece of sweet melon, he loves it.
I am off to find a really sunny spot to rest in for a few minutes, drink some honey tea and hopefully be on the mend soon:)
See you tomorrow for Creative Friday…
