Spring colour and a favourite view

I love the explosion of colour Spring has brought to my garden. Although there was a bit of colour in winter, most of the time I was hibernating inside and not fully appreciating it. I hate being cold.

There's much more life in the garden right and that even includes me. 

Tomato and zucchini seedlings have been planted, roses fertilised and weeds pulled up. Well most of the weeds. 

Potting mix has been added into old meat trays, with holes poked in the bottom for drainage. Seeds have been planted within, of corn, basil, chilli. Cumin seeds also, just to see what happens.

These following photos were taken on my way home from Mount Gambier last Thursday. I just love this view as I drive over the hill, just past the 'Welcome to the Wattle Range Council'sign. 

The fields past this shearing shed are forever changing with the seasons. Right now they are green from a wet winter and Canola paints the landscape with yellow.

Nature photos

Just over a week ago my sister in law tagged me to do a nature challenge on Facebook. I had to post nature photos for seven days.

I chose to take it on, and it sparked an urge to get out in the garden and take photos.

What I didn't bother to do was tag a different person for every one of those days. I just didn't think anyone could be bothered with it, plus I don't think I know that many people who would.

I enjoy sharing photos and I love that this blog gives me a broader avenue to do that.

You'll see at the end, Izzy doesn't mind taking the odd photo either.
