TOF headed off to Whangamata early this morning to go fishing, or Hunting for the family as he likes to call it. (he has returned with dinner for a few nights) Finding myself home alone and quite content to be so I decided to head out doors and do a spot of gardening. With only jandals on my feet and short sleeves I moved buxus and planted Camellias, and got totally side tracked with my camera. Quite a mild day for Winter and a fabulous way to while away the day!!

| Pots, bird baths, chairs, chiminea, trees and my scarecrow. |

| My dad made this tiny bird house years ago, he called it the ladybird house. |
 |
| Hyper-tuffa, pumice and foliage. |
 |
| Pig full of Hyacinths. |
 |
| Promise of colour and fruit to come. |
 |
| Flaxes, jandal solar lights in the shells, scarecrows with toadstools. |
 |
| Shapes and sculpture blending with nature. |

My garden and how it changes with the seasons and time provides me with hours of pleasure. I enjoy the peace and tranquility that I find when armed with my gardening gloves and a trowel, and of course my trusty camera.
