Sunday Selections # 712

Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.

A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.

Nothing rude or vulgar though.

And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us.

The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look.

Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally.

sulphur crested cockatoo eating a pine cone, sent by "no-one"

spotted this as I neared the Big Green Hardware Shed

a closer inspection revealed the white flowers were Pandorea Jasminoides, also known as Bower Vine

red bouganvillea

and pink bouganvillea

this two-tone pelargonium surprised me by surviving and blooming, my younger son loves the colour so I will take a cutting for him to plant in his yard.

I'm sure I have shown this before, more than once I suspect, but I love a rose bush that delivers many shades from orange buds to orange-yellow blooms that fade to pink or yellow before turning white as they age. I'd take a cutting if I knew it would survive but I don't have a good track record when it comes to roses.

a closer look at the delicate colouring, can you see the pink and the yellow centre?

interesting wheel trims these days

remember the days gone by when all cars had plain hubcaps that could double as frisbees? Or slung over a campfire to cook the chops?

This sign made me smile and wonder what exactly is a Horse Coffee? I should have gone inside and asked, but it was looking a little busy. I suspect it is just a larger stronger coffee.
