With the Varoa mite and other issues around the country, we are doing really well, with both European and Australian Native hives flourishing.

Cav's bird friend is a blue faced Fig bird. We have them visit around our place thankfully as they like the peel the bark back (on River redgums) and eat hiding Huntsman spiders.

Typical wooden boat.
Bilge pump probably couldn't keep up to the regular hull leaks and heavy rain deck leaks all in one go.

Looks to be a once a beautiful old ex ferry.

Peak beauty!



I would often get customers asking why they couldn't grow hydrangea's, like it was some sort of black art. So what's the secret? Um, just water them.............like, lots! Those large, lush green leaves mean a large surface area for transportation of moisture. That moisture needs to replaced as it's lost, so the plant draws lots of water from the surrounding soil. Don't keep that up to the plant, well the foliage wilts and burns, the flower buds go out in protest.

Even so, with 44-degrees predicted tomorrow, I doubt these specimens will get off unscathed as the late afternoon sun appears.

Photo taken at Curtain Springs 2013, the local grader driver with his equipment, mobile home & vehicle hitched up like a road train just pulled in for a few days, well-earned rest, this guy covers a big area in NT, so I was told by the owners.

PS: Curtain Spring is top place for a visit or night stay or two, great hospitality from the owners.
