Sunshine, flowers

Sunshine, flowers

Butterflies and bees.

Valleys, mountains,

Chocolate and seas.

Ice-cream, birds,

Alcohol and trees.

Jungles, elephants

Summertime’s breeze.

Fulfilment, writing,

Leisure and ease.

Unrelenting wonder

Begin and never cease.

And I think to myself………….

So good to be alive.

I thought I’d share a few of our recent walks. This one was at Burton Agnes – a great place to visit.

As it’s autumn the gardens are not in flower but there were still a number of things that caught my eye!

It was a bright sunny day and warm!!

Australia – Flowers, egrets and eccentric farms in the middle of nowhere.

We drove around the area. There were lots of beautiful flowers, huge flocks of egrets, and ended up at some weird farm in the middle of nowhere. There was nobody around but the owners certainly liked to collect strange ornaments.

As a biologist I’m always fascinated by the different plants, flowers and life in different parts of the world – things that locals might take for granted.

Nothing should ever be taken for granted.
