On the bright side

After all the gloom and doom lately after the fires the Reserve showed itself from its best side today.

Already in the way in the blanket over Ladyslipper was something special to see.

I will let the pictures speak for themselves, from the new growth on the Sterculia to the flowering Pelargonium, all too beautiful to behold.

Ellie also managed to get her hands on a weather station after two years of trying. It still needs some development to get the data on the internet but at last we will be able to record the weather data for the Reserve.
