I took these shots yesterday as this pair were enjoying the nuts of the Willow Leaf Hakea trees by the garden pond.
I found this unusual tree over the back fence of my work-place today. I am hoping someone can help me out with what it is. It appears to be a Native of sorts – and has such a stunning coloured flower. It was too high for me to reach up and pick a flower off – I had to zoom. Anyway, tomorrow I will approach the owners and ask for a branch. / /
