Rongotea

Hi  Daffnetters , We  had  a  small  show  at  Rongotea  on  Thursday  —  a  good  midweek attendance for  this  friendly country  show  . The  Champion  bloom  was  a  tall  , bright  yellow  trumpet  that  held itself  well  and  looked  right …

Fw: Another Bulb shed companion

We’ve ben into entomology on Daffnet in recent days so here is another harmless beastie. The Robin liked to pick off little spiders in the shed but this guy was too big a bite for him. About 3″  from toe…

Maybe the last picture?

Ah! Sadly I have not sen him for three days. Weather has been terribly wet – maybe he is sheltering somewhere else; maybe his papa has finally bullied him away to another territory – or, perish the thought, maybe one…

Fw: Now in full colours – ready for winter and in search of a mate for next spring.

Brian…………..they are super pictures of this wonderful bird that captured my heart when we first went to England.  I think  his unique coloring and the ring around the eye makes for a special “look.”  Thanks for  sharing them.  We will…
