Morning everyone. Cool and overcast here this morning. The heater is still on and the boys are watching Animalia. They're still not 100% but getting better. Branden's teacher said that there were 10 kiddies away on Thursday so it must be going around. They have really nasty coughs. Jean I haven't seen a white Nerine. I believe there is a yellow one now too. I have a yellow Watsonia nearly ready to flower. When I go out the back all I can smell are stocks and out the front the mauve buddliah. The birds are having a field day. I have a pair of Murray Magpies nesting in the Norfolk pine this year. They usually nest in the big pines up the back but must have decided to come closer to the house for some reason. I think there are Willy wagtails nesting in the same tree but haven't spotted their nest yet.The redthroated Wattle birds are having an easy time collecting fur for their nests. There are going to be some really cosy nests around this year. Will take a pic of the Crinolin Lady teaset later for you all to see. Be back later.Colleen
