I came home this morning early from the fish markets to find that my Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia) is now in flower – the first for this season. This flower always intrigues me and I find the brilliant colours so captivating.

Beautiful image and flower Bev. Always wanted one of these but never seem get one for myself!
Thanks Jade – you were quick. I have one bush near the front door and more down the back including the giant version too thats a totally different colour. I must take a walk down there later to see if these ones are in flower. This one virtually opened up over night.

Great shot Bev. The colours are fantastic & so vibrant.
Thanks Michael – Happy Easter. I took this one at about 7 am this morning before the sun got to that spot as I wanted the even light. Very pleased.
