Nice rain

It was good to get some rain overnight - the bushland looked a bit fresher this morning than last Sunday when it was quite hot - things are very dry, and it isn't even summer yet! The last of the spring flowers are out - swan river myrtle, and summer flowers are coming - ptilotus, fringe lilies.


Swan River Myrtle (Hypocalymma robustum)
John and I worked in the Geraldton Carnation Weed patch(es) along the western fence bordering the Defence Dept land. We found lots .... and there were lots of young GCWs coming up, so we will have to come back here before summer sends them all to seed.
