#Bronte feathering her new nest, as only she can do!

She now has two official sleeping locations but just does her thing and sleeps wherever she wants, of course!

She’s a cat… it’s her prerogative, hey?!

BTW, dont you just love the way cats poke, prod and ‘knead’ their bedding before they settle for a snooze?!!

#Brunswick #Australia is home to this lovely creation, painted by #Juzpop and #saladbowlart.

The colours and shading bring out the beauty of the subject perfectly in this candid scene.

And I adore the #flora and #butterflies, which are signature specialities that Juz portrays so well.

This is gorgeous 🙌💖

Gorgeous, vibrant public art adorn these housing building walls in #Southmelbourne #Australia.

I love the realism and striking colours of each work.

I especially like the kind features of the woman on the end of the building, who is surrounded with classic #flora… and whose features depict an old soul, with a distinct appearance of quiet wisdom.

Here’s #Bronte zonked out on the bed.

With the sudden departure of her pal and sister #Missy a few weeks back, her life has changed considerably. She’s now the solo cat of the household.

Bought her a new blanky which she’s taking full advantage of, now the weather has turned cold. And she’s calling less for her sis. Loads of cuddles and ‘us’ time has helped her transition, I think.

Our pet’s become embedded as a part of the family-propper and it’s such a shame they only visit us for such a short time.

I’m sure all pet owners agree.

All the same, I’m sure Missy is flying high in her new existence.

A domestic #olivegrove consisting of a few hundred trees in #Centralvictoria #Australia… just after #dusk.

These will be ready to pick soon.

The trees will be subject to a machine that will ‘shake’ each of them one by one carefully (and with love!), so that the olives drop on a mat and scooped up into a hopper.

This machine is called a ‘shaker’, funny enough!

We’ve had many a year prior, with dozens of peeps from near and far coming to pick for a few hours over a weekend - and rewarded with a hearty spread, vino and cheer.

Loads of strangers turn up to participate.

Olives go off to a small processing plant nearby and come back as oil. Loads of rain last year which means a bumper crop this year.

This lot will yield between 1000 - 2000 litres this year I think…

Pretty cool!

OMG!

It’s #camellia season!

#CamelliaSasanqua is a species of Camellia native to China and Japan.

This one is gorgeous and healthy. The leaves are characteristically shiny (some are waxy) and the deep pinks of the petals and yellows of the filament-anthers are something else.

#sensational!

Some sad news.

#Missy, our gorgeous Tonkinese passed early last week.

She had been struggling health-wise for the past six months, however her recent decline was rapid and is now racing around elsewhere I’m sure, in another world of wonderment and joy.

Thankful that she brought so much love and light to our lives and kept #Bronte-cat company.

Be well beautiful girl.

You’re not too far from here, only a dimension or two away.

Missy was sunning herself this morning. She turned 13 recently.

She hasn’t been well but seems almost back to her old self today, which is super pleasing.

Annnnd, Bronte joined the Sunday-slumber this arvo…

#autumn has swung around quick in the parts, despite the persistent warmer weather the past few days.

I reckon the flora is somewhat confused as some has been turning for the last couple of weeks thinking if it’s ‘time’. Or not!!

These beauties were spotted in #toorak #Australia and thought it post-worthy given some parts of both of these tree foliage are turning a lush #red - almost mottled in colour at this time.

I’ll revisit in a couple of weeks to see how they’re progressing. I’m thinking they’ll be a brilliant red, then perhaps bare in a month or two. Let’s see.

🙏❤️

Enjoy your day (or night!).

The household was up super early this morning and so too were the cats.

Here’s gorgeous #Missy sunning herself on the balcony and taking time to clean!

The close up reveals a wayward booga. Want a tissue Miss? 🤧

#Bronte has gone back for another snooze!

#Missy is bunking down today inside.

It has just hit the forecast temp of 38c (100F) and it’s at least 10 degrees less Indoors. So that’s something!

Last time I saw #Bronte she was outside sprawled out in the heat, on the balcony.

I think I might just go and bring her in!

🤷🏻‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂😂

Another finely manicured fence #hedge in #Toorak #Australia.

These guys know their style. I love rustic and unkept (natural) settings but enjoy formal as well.

This is a great example of what can be achieved over time to green the neighbourhood up in an elegant way.

Love it!

A cute piece of street art in #Toorak #Australia.

Some kind of #gumnut with our iconic gold $1 coin featured at the base.

Did you know next year will be the 40th year this coin replaced the one dollar note?

#olives (Olea europaea) are natives of the #mediterranean parts of #asia and #africa and have been in cultivation for thousands of years.

There is archeological evidence that indicate olives were grown in #crete as early as 3500 BC and olives are some of the oldest living trees in #europe with a few believed to be well over 1,000 years old.

These 500 or so #olivetrees on the farm produce well over 1000 litres of oil, after being picked and pressed nearby.

It’s a young #olivegrove; about 25 years old but has produced a bumper crop during most of those years. Draught however, impacts yield from year to year.

Fruit will start to appear in the coming weeks and harvest will be late March, through to April. There’s usually a large window of opportunity to pick olives in #centralvictoria #Australia. D#And it’s all dependent on weather and the development of fully ripened #olives 🫒

Picking has always been a festive event with people from near and far coming to participate. Once all the hard work is done, food, drink and merriment normally follows!

I’ve been observing this beautiful #hedge and greenery display of this #Toorak #Australia property for years now.

Not once have I ever seen an unruly hair out of place!

I love formal garden settings and this one is no exception.

I love #ivy on walls and fences.

This is a little taster as I have others I saw last weekend. Like, full coverage.

I’ll do some research on the mechanism by which they ‘root’ (stick) themselves to the surface, and report back!

This one’s on a residential wall in #Toorak
