A few garden shots again

11 comments


I thought I would show a few pics of the garden "in progress’. So here enjoy!

Just a note! Look carefully at the pic below! See anything? Blue-headed Agama lizard female, we have had them male & female visit and now live in the garden since last November and they also produced a little one, that is still in the garden – I am so pleased about this.

Finally, today has been one of those near windless sunny days. So to end a photo over the ocean with the fishing boats, and if you look carefully, dolphins playing in the foreground.

Hope you enjoyed the preview! LT

Not sure if I found the lizard - is it the thing that looks like a twig near the bottom of the picture?
I'm ashamed to say I don't recognise the flag - where are you? It would be nice if you were to write something in the About Me section of your profile!

The lizard, second pic, there is a biggish aloe (left), next to it, bush (honeysuckle), right above this bush, it is hanging on the brick wall, getting warm so that it can go hunting! I hope to take nice pics of them soon, they have become fairly accustomed to me. I am in South Africa & if I remember I did write something in about me! Hehe! LT

Hi, yeah 16 months for top initial part and I am building on that now with new seedlings I grew, so slow process, this part will look a lot better in 2 months, but then I can refer back to these as comparison. I am now starting to fill it in with various things (plants&rock) but not overdoing, need to see, decide, adjust, and so on. :-)

Some lovely aloes, it must be lovely to see the Dolphins only ever seen 2 in England and that was only a fleeting view. :o)

Yes, I have not seen as many as we have seen here, in most other places, we have at least round 150, at least, going up and down. You really do not have to wait more than 30min to see a pod. It is nice, I will confess. LT

Nice to see the succulents growing in the garden instead of pots. I was lucky to see the lizard after enlarging the photo lol ... and lovely to see the dolphins also :o)

Hehe, Hywel, the aim was not the lizard, I did not even see it when I took the pics, but hey there she was, so I had to give her a mention. Monday, I was watering and saw something out of the corner of my eye, it was the male, running on the grass towards me, stopped about a meter from me, gave a look and then came straight for the water, run underneath the spray and ran out again - guess he wanted a shower, it was pretty funny. Never expected that.

lol must have been funny to watch. Maybe he needed to cool off :o)

Maybe. He has been pretty busy, chasing the female around. Spring is in the air! :-)
