There was talk of rain. It started with thunderstorms Thursday afternoon, a few splashes but really nothing to speak of at first. Then during the night a calm descended and light rain came with it and persisted. By Friday morning it was continuous. I looked out the bedroom window at my cuttings of daphnes, viburnums, lemon myrtles, stephanadra, rosemary and lavender in boxes and pots with great joy in my love of mother nature. How great thou art.
I just went outside in the gummies with a torch and checked the rain guage. 64 ml. Sensational.
On Wednesday i picked 40 bunches of variegated pittosporum and came across a little birds nest. An old one now disused. Jod picked up my bunches on the quad bike and I showed him the nest asking him what bird made it. Silvereye he said quick as a flash. It was made of horsehair.
