At the end of a day ...

Hello!

Thought I'd take you for a little walk as I do my pottering at the end of a day.
Nothing exciting perhaps, but yet, for me, very satisfying... 

Setting off to feed the chooks, worms and fish:

First corn from Hubby's vegie patch... tasted beautiful too.

As I set off, I have a check on the hanging plants to see if they need watering after such a hot day:

Underneath them, the Native Hibiscus blooms and the Windflower is in bud:

The chooks hear the gate and come a'running ... so excited to be getting FOOD!!! At Last!!! :

Great excitement this evening, as well as the usual treats ... a corn cob which they clean up in no time:

Over to the worm bin and they get the cut up corn cob husks:

Now to check on some Woolly Bush (an Australian Native) cuttings I've set - they're the easiest thing to grow from cuttings and I have big plans for them:

Near to them, I water the Bottlebrush (Calistemon). It survives exceptionally well in the heat but, after the run of hot days we've had, even it needs a drink:

Through the fence and into my dear Hubby's vegie garden:

These zucchini have grown so big in a few hot days.  

Now to my favourites... cherry tomatoes.  I gave them shelter from the fierce 40+ deg Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) sun with a piece of shadecloth, however, they continue to ripen under it so I've left it there:

Got to admire that lovely corn patch. Many more corn cobs to come. 

On the way to feed the fish, I have a look in at the rainforest... it doesn't need watering again, so on to the fish pond:

Here we are,  and all seems quiet at the pond:

A bit of a rattle of the feed container and there they are.  Looks like they've nibbled on that lily pad as entree:

Further down, I find the seed pod of the Grevillea has opened and shed its seeds already.  I was going to see if I could strike any of the seeds in pots.  Ah well, there's always another pod to come :D)

On the way back, I check on the lizards' drinking bowl and, even though it has plenty of water in it,  am a bit ashamed that its so overgrown.  I make a mental note to clean it up the next day:

A look back through the Argyle Apple Eucalyptus at the setting sun.  Another lovely day is coming to a close:

Thanks for sharing that part of my day.
