Default Re: The secret life of plants

Elaine spends a lot of time in her gardens scattered around our home. She tends to prefer a wilderness type of layout rather than a formal design.
Wallabies also spend time in the gardens and have been known to be destructive - but they were here first so we don't begrudge them the odd plant now and then.

This view is looking out from our back door and is a pleasure to see each morning as well as throughout the day.



This section is just to the left of the one above and is a view to the North-west. You'll notice the fence which keeps hares out but it doesn't deter the wallabies - they just hop over it.

We have bird feeders spread around the property and a couple of nesting boxes for the pale headed rosellas. The Kookaburra population has risen from the original four that we here when we first arrived seven tears ago, to 16 at this time.
