boring, Boring, BORING!

I know - it's boring.

This particular tree is alive with little birds, but I can't see any of them except in my imagination. There's probably white plumed honeyeaters, silver-eyes, striated pardelotes, and all sorts of other stuff. But I can't see 'em. And if I can't see 'em, I can't photograph them. The thing is, it's in flower and those little flowers drip with nectar. Ah, well, them's the breaks.

So, here we have an arbutus tree, (arbutus unedo) not the one with the pretty variegated bark, oh no. It's the boring one. Of course it is.

The weather is boring as well, low cloud cover, no rain, no sun. Just boring.

And, I have been a really, really bad commenter this past couple of days. I do apologise, and normal service will be resumed as soon as possible. We are training pretty hard, preparing for the Master's Games in October. I will get my act back into gear as soon as the routine settles down, but for the moment, please do forgive me.
