Central Highlands Victoria - 40d heat

Its going to be 40d today - our first hot day for the summer

Here are some pictures from the garden first thing this morning



the magnolia has been in for about 10 years - we are having its first flowers this year



Sweet and George enjoy a swim





Some veg is growing - have had a few peas and the beans are starting to grow



we dont have many flowers - i prefer aussie natives but there are some scattered around


we have birds come to visit - they like the chook and duck food and the leftovers that are put out for the chooks





we love our views - the plains are starting to brown off - they are very late this year but we are still very green in the garden - helped by the record 200mm in 4 days mid january
