Aeonium arboreum 'Zwartkop' Black Rose. There are lots of these close to the footpath near the Western end of MacArthur St in the gardens of several homes. I didn't see it with the naked eye but the photo shows what appears to be very fine and tiny white spikes around the edges of the outer petals. Could be that they are meant to make it difficult for crawling insects enter the flower.

2 young ones pestering mum for food. She regurgitates and the young ones go down her throat for a feed. Pied Shags at Zealandia. ( See tomorrow's photo.)

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
