Messy Gardens

Ian Hamilton from Natures choice gardening services - Khandallah

The grass is overgrown, the bushes are too,
The flowers grow out of place, just like they want to do,

I'II leave my garden as is, and let natures choice try !

"A great day for getting out and about, so it was off to Silverstream armed with my hiking boots as I knew the track would be really muddy! I couldn't clap eyes on any kingfishers today but there was plenty of other birdlife, and most of them seemed to be performing ablutions including a fantail (unfortunately he was well hidden when he was bathing so the photo isn't very good!)."

"After what seems an eternity since I last went bird spotting, I managed to get myself out to Silverstream 2 afternoons in a row! I can't believe how many kingfishers are around but most of the time, they have been too far away on the powerlines to get decent photos of but it was a bonus today seeing one on a post in the driving range car park!
I have also spent some time watching the pesky blackbirds and waxeyes munch their way through the grapes on the grapevine."
