Spider

I was storing away photos from the last year starting with December last year and came across this forgotten tiny spider hiding in the wild jasmin along the pool. He is almost transparant and very pretty with the brown accent on it's back.

Seagull at sunset


Every Friday night during the warmer months we meet up with friends at the beach in Cottesloe to enjoy the sunset and start the weekend with some relaxed chatter and a glass of wine. The seagulls are often part of our company, this pretty one was looking down on us...

Yellow Pepper Blossom

I bought yellow pepper seedlings this spring and now they are blossoming. I am looking forward to taste them, see if they are as hot as the red ones from last year.

Blueberries

Remember the blueberry blossom in July? Now they are ripe and I've already eaten quite a few, they are delicious and full of good stuff for the body.

Palm tree fruits

Remember the flowers in the Triangle Palm in February? This is how it looks now; tiny yellow fruits, not sure if they end up being a flower or an edible fruit for birds or so...

We have the old variaty of the mulberry in our garden and while all other mulberries are fruiting at the moment we have to wait until Christmas for some juicy fruits.

Mating

But what are they? A kind of flying ant? They used the wooden poles in my garden to have a short rest before flying off again.

Chicks

Since Tuesday evening I have four chicks; the little bantam was broody for the third time and I got some fertilised eggs from a friend which she has brought from Balingup down south three weeks ago. And Tuesday night all four eggs where cracked when I came home from work, two chickies were still wet so it had just happened. These photos of one of the lighter yellow chicks with speckles were made this morning, 3.5 days after the birth, they grow very fast.
