The shrubs in the garden are starting to flower now spring has come and these are attracting a lot of the honey eating birds. With our water restrictions in force it is best to grow the native plants because these need no where near as much watering as the exotic ones.
This one is a Grevillea hybrid called Golden Lyre with the blooms being anything from 8 to 12 inches long - the birds love it. This photo of a Red Wattle bird was taken by a friend of mine who was visiting from the the USA.
