The lemon tree has shed some of the smaller lemons – I think this will give the other lemons a better chance of growing.

Lots of bees and butterflies hovering around too – probably because of the very colourful Petunias I planted with the lemon and mandarin trees.

One thing missing in my garden is a green canopy and a micro climate. I would love a few trees for shade and for cooling the house down.

The rabbits have eaten all the green waste from the kitchen to the point where they set off the security cameras a few times – probably looking for more 🙂

A huge flock of Rainbow Lorikeets are circling the house – probably trying to get to the apples in the surrounding orchards. We’ll visit one of them again soon for a coffee and some fresh produce… miles and miles of bird netting looks very strange – like cloud puffs in the distance but keeping the birds from eating the crop no doubt.
