kerravonsen: Paradise Farm, Queenstown, New Zealand (Paradise)
My Silky-Oak tree is in bloom. Forget honeysuckle, forget Nasturtiums, Silky-Oak nectar is the thing! More plentiful, and a richer taste. Though harvesting it is tricky, as the flowers tend to break up when you try to get the nectar; probably part of their life-cycle, as they are pollinated by honey-eating birds rather than bees. Alas, this year there is only one branch I can reach, as the other low branch was cut off (without my permission, bah!)

I guess I can watch the birds enjoying them.

I was putting the trash out and the deadness of my lawn (not to mention the deadness of my ivy) caught my eye and I thought I'd take a photo. But before I actually took any photos, I got chatting with a neighbour and it was dim-dark by the time we were done, so I had to use the flash.
