Growing on Something



What started off as taking some photos of pretty flowers growing on an orange tree ...
 

 


... turned into taking photos of other small and dainty plants growing upon various trees close by.
 


"Grow where you are planted"


“A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees.”
Amelia Earhart 


“Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change.” 
Wayne W. Dyer
I can imagine a fairy hiding here, what about you?


"Find joy in the ordinary."

"Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it." 
Confucius


"The bigger your challenges the bigger your opportunity for growth."
 Karen Salmansohn


"Spread love everywhere you go."
Mother Theresa


“A seed planted in the ground does not feel its lack of roots, stem and petals as a ‘weakness’ or being ‘less than.’  It simply sees an opportunity to grow and then does.” 
Michael Stevenson


"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realise they were the big things."
Robert Brault 


Another Tablelands weekend is coming to a close (yes, I am aware it is Monday ... thank goodness for 3 day weekends) so I'm doing some photo-relaxing, meaning taking and blogging photos.

A Tablelands Saturday Morning

 What are you doing with your Saturday morning?

Mine is looking a lot like this ...



While looking out at this ...



And thinking about what I could do with this ...



Then getting sidetracked with looking at and playing around with these after of cause wandering around taking them ...






It is looking like a lovely, sunny Tablelands weekend (please take note of the sunny as it has been raining up here continuously for the last month).
I hope your Saturday is shaping up well.

Who Likes Oranges and Mandarins?

 Do you like your citrus fruit?
What do you think of oranges and mandarins?
Someone on The Dairy Farm does.
Can you guess who?


Peek a boo! Here they are, well some of them.
Who knew, Rainbow Lorikeets LOVE oranges and mandarins.



What is even better is I love taking photos of them and while they are feasting they are distracted and mostly still AND I can sneak closer to them.




Bright, colourful and gorgeous in their parroty way aren't they.

Black, White and Muted

 Last weekend, the Queen's Birthday long weekend here in QLD, was spent on the Tablelands.
It was wet and drippy, sloppy and muddy and most of all misty and foggy.
