Australian native flowers Callistemon in spring bloom in the backyard jungle at #HeathcoteNSW #Sydney #NewSouthWales #Australia

After 4 years or so, my seed grown Callistemon is flowering for the first time and it's PINK!
Also, a gang gang just flew past my place. Squeee!

A cascading waterfall flows over multiple tiers of dark, mossy rocks surrounded by lush greenery. Ferns and plants grow thickly at the base, and tall trees with vibrant green leaves arch overhead, filtering sunlight through the canopy. The water gathers in a small, calm pool at the bottom, creating a serene and picturesque woodland scene under a clear blue sky. This is the Cascade Waterfall in Windsor Great Park, a beautifully landscaped feature that adds to the park’s tranquil and natural charm. Windsor Great Park dates back over 900 years, originally serving as a royal hunting ground for William the Conqueror. Over time, it evolved into a grand landscaped parkland and today remains part of the Crown Estate, offering visitors a glimpse of its rich royal and natural heritage.

I love seeing Olive-backed Sunbirds and their hanging nests, this drawing was done from a photograph my husband took on a trip to Queensland, such a beautiful garden bird 🤩 rachelhollis.com/product/oliv... #birdart #wallart #naturenart #artprints

Perhaps this photo is not ideal, but the light filters through here beautifully some mornings.

Morning 😊

Flux of light
Through ripples of time
Revealing interwoven memories
All that is precious
Joy of what can be

Australia is seen as a young country — but do you really know its ancient story? Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' story goes way, way back… take an awe-inspiring journey into Deep Time.

#Australian First Peoples have survived here for at least 65,000 yrs.

They’ve lived through an ice age, volcanic eruptions, and shared the land with giant animals that no longer exist... Precious knowledge passed down thru 2,300 generations.
