Found my first Jacaranda flower on the ground this weekend..............
You know what they.............
"when the bloom of the Jacaranda tree is here Christmas time is near"
Its a line out of this Christmas carol "Christmas Where the Gum Trees Grow"
(another wild video by me trying to video and feed sheep all at once)
Lets rewind one week...........the Sunday 8th Oct I was feeding sheep and became a drowned rat.............only got 1/2 the sheep fed and down it came for a few minutes............it showered all day..........
AMAZING and GORGEOUS rain.............
We had our biggest fall all year 29mms of rain..........
With a few more bits I think we ended up with 40mms over a few days................AND we have good rain forecast end of this week so fingers crossed it does happen..........there is a green tinge but we need follow up............then a quick heavy inch to run some water into the dams.............
Now I feel like an ad for a body transformation cream/diet..........lol but the garden was looking so dead........I've got a few before (above) and after (below) shoots to see what the rain did to the lawn............
Some of the plants are still having there spring shoot............but I am a little worried about some not actually coming back to life..............
already have a few bushes to pull out..........
Excuse the guinea fowl wandering thru the photo...........
nearly lost my big rose on the trellis.......
It's still got a way to go but OMG 7 days difference in these pics...........
AND now I have some extra regular bore water for my garden.......
doing cartwheels about that with excitement...........
Amazing hey.........
My reward for walking yesterday afternoon..........
nature is AMAZING.........
one day after the rain there are little green shoots in the paddocks.........
how can that happen so fast..........
Catch you later.......
