Waiting for time to pass ...

... before I hop in the car to meet hubby at his office ... then off to airport ...

... so I thought I would leave you with ...

... a little bit of blue with orange aloe flowers ...


... a backdrop of brown ..

... a stoney grey ...


... a fading pink ...


... and glistening black mingling in beige ...

.. with shades of deepest blues ...

... and a red/orange beak with stripey tail. Two Redbilled Woodhoopoes squawed and scurried in a neighbours 'nearly-leafless' tree yesterday - the two boys were enthralled by their calls and their colours.

Bye for now ....

  5. By now you should be back home. I hope you enjoyed the weekend.
    I love aloes. They are just some of the most beautiful plants when in full bloom. I have a aloe in my garden which has been there for 4 years from being a little baby aloe and which is starting to flower for the first time now.
