A WALK AROUND THE VILLAGE

My friend and I set off for our walk early in the morning we were heading for Priest Gully but just as we were leaving the footpath to enter the park it started to rain so we turned around and came home, we didn't have umbrellas with us. Later in the day the rain cleared and I went for a walk around the village. Here are some of the flowers that I saw. Not too bad for winter time.

Banksia



Poinsettia






Grevillea

    Looking at the variety and colours of the flowers I can't believe it is mid winter there.

    I'm very impressed. It would hard to find so so much colour on the Island in summer!

    You do have some lovely winter blooms in your neighborhood, Diane. And, of course, since it's summer here we have them as well, but our winter will be rather dreary.

    Your winter walks are so colourful, compared to ours. Poinsettia is a plant we give as gifts in pots at Christmas.

    Simply gorgeous. I am not familiar with a lot of the flowers but you captured them beautifully. The seed pods on that first picture are quite amazing.
    I keep forgetting it is winter there while we tend to swelter here in California.
    Glad you are able to take your walks now.

    I'm so surprised you have so many flowers in bloom during your coldest months! What a pretty place to take a walk and always good to have your camera or phone handy! Hugs, Diane
