Side Verandah and Sunbird Mama

What a cheerful blog on a Sunday morning! I love the female wallaby pic, Bernie. It must be lovely to see them out there, grazing. This one looks like she's posing perfectly for you.
Your White Alder is a pretty plant for around your pond. I'm really loving the colour in your hanging baskets, perfect choices. Hoping they thrive for you in the summer. Sounds like a lovely day, 25 degrees..
That pic of the Sunbird in her nest is adorable! Lucky you!!

Thanks Kate. We really are very blessed and appreciate all the special joys that came our way whilst living here.

Really enjoyable pics., Bushbernie. I'm glad mother bird has come back to the nest and hope she lays lots of eggs for you to enjoy watching. The wallaby is very picturesque also. Good luck with your baskets. Goodness, the breeders do give these plants some forgettable names, don't they?!

It's great to see your sunny skies and wildlife Bb. So sorry to hear about mama Sunbirds egg. Hopefully she'll lay another egg to incubate and you'll get to see the fledgling when hatched, and maybe we will too..:))

I've got my fingers crossed Janey and hope we get to see some fledlings!

What an adorable face to start the blog BB.Your baskets do look very full and attractive despite your temps.We use to have them each year here but they did dry out despite the watering.

Meadowland, I'm finding I have to water the baskets every day right now, so I may have to actually do that twice a day when our summertime comes around. I think it's going to be a lot of effort keeping them going!

That won't be a chore as you seem to love gardening like us all.

i enjoyed your latest blog. your wildlife is certainly different to ours!
the hanging baskets look lovely.

So true Meadowland. I know I'll do everything I can to let those plants flourish.

Thanks Seaburngirl. We do have the most amazing wildlife out here. We fortunate to be close to bushland so we see creatures like the wallabies almost every day.

Love your blog. It’s nice for us to hear from down under, you must be the first. Good luck with everything, plants & birds.

Very kind, thank you Feverfew.

Bb, a Wallaby was not what I was expecting to see in a GoY blog, haha! Fabulous creatures. I am viewing your blogs and can imagine how awful you felt when the Sunbird egg flipped out of the nest. I still can't get over the shape of the nest, wonderful creation.

Thanks Shirley. Yes, I'm blogging from Downunder and wallabies are a common sight here in my corner of Oz. Thankfully, mother Sunbird appears to have laid more eggs and is still sitting in her nest. We're waiting very patiently to see the outcome!

Bernie, then I shall await the photos of chicks!
