spend more time appreciating the nature in my own yard

specifically for my backyard photos. That way I will always know if I have managed to do this for a year! Here is a link to my backyard calendar it only has 2 photos so far but I’m sure it will grow quickly :0)

the self seeded passionfruit continue to fruit year after year!

today the picture is of a flower that has just started blooming in my garden

I did not have time to post yesterday so here is the picture from 21/3/09

of the interesting and beautiful things of nature I find in my backyard, I may even try to find one thing per day to photograph and post it. Not only would it be a good record of the nature here but it would also show how things change over the year. I could also use it as a measure as to when I have completed this goal. If I do it everyday for a year I would consider it complete! Here is today’s photo. It is a baby frog I noticed while I was weeding the garden this morning. I love the green tree frogs and it is supposed to be a good sign that the environment is healthy if there are frogs around so it always makes me happy to see them in our yard!

not sure what kind it was but I had never seen it before. I hope it decides to stay!

after another insect broke it’s thread

this is a blurry photo of it as it wouldn’t stay still while I took the photo LOL
