Look what I can see through the upstairs patio doors of the dining room.

The tree is covered in flowers and they look like big snowballs or cotton balls, it is so pretty, I think the tree is a Melaleuca.
The second photo shows the whole tree and the creeper covering the bottom half is a Honeysuckle that smells divine.

Photo number three is my lonely little duck. The other ducks have chased him out of their group so he comes here on his own now and spends most of the day laying around in the back yard with our big "Spanky" cat.

And photo number 4 is a test of your eyesight, see if you can spot the water dragon.
Give in?
Double click on the photo to get a close up. Can you see him now? :-)))

They aren't so comfortable with the cats yet but this one stayed in the backyard when Ray went out there to mow the lawn.

I tried to take a photo of a little Blue Wren but he was too far away and they are so tiny that my mobile phone wasn't good enough to capture him.

It was a lovely day here, now Ray and I are watching a late movie, surrounded by our fur babies.
I wish that every day could be this good for everyone.
Hugs and roses, Meganne

It's lovely having these little visitors

Looks wonderful - it has been a glorious day here too, but I suspect a tad cooler!

Megs, your tree looks lovely, what a pretty show it is. No sorry I can't see the water dragon. Enjoy your movie.
I've just put the dinner in the oven.

The tree looks glorious, I love your lonely drake and can't spot the water dragon (don't even know what it is supposed to look like - family of the dragonfly?)

So sorry, I just realised we can't double click on the photo's here.
A water dragon is like a big lizard.
He's really well camouflaged. :-)))

Beautiful Meganne, you live in paradise by the looks of it and I spend ages to try to take a photo of the blue wren when we were in Perth. Agree it is so pretty. Have such happy memories of all the wildlife we saw. Hugs edith

Thank you very much for sharing your lovely abode with us. I could not get No. 4 to enlarge, but I think that I could make out your little dragon in the centre part? Have a lovely day. ****

This is a water dragon in my backyard this morning. Had to take the photo through the kitchen window so as not to scare it away. We have as many as 9 or 10 running around throughout the day. You might get some idea as to what they look like from this photo. Marg

Great pictures Meg and these are just what they look like. I was there on Friday and the water dragon is a water lizard. If you look to the middle of the picture and up about a centimetre you can see his head and his little body (it's a bit darker than the rest of the picture) Love Chris
