Garden update
My tulips were a bit of a disappointment this year. These are most of
the blooms I saw compared to a couple of dozen blooms last year.
Other than that, the garden is progressing quite nicely.
Three years ago, we tried to move the white rosebush because it
was in a wet part of the garden, but the roots broke off. I put four
cuttings in the ground in the hopes of saving a part of it and
now one of those cuttings is as big as the whole rosebush was!

Lake Westmere, Whanganui
On our last trip to Whanganui, we stopped at this little wildlife refuge at
Lake Westmere on Rapanui Road. You can walk all the way around the lake,
about 45 minutes walking, but we just went a little ways down the path.
Hubby found a tui that was too busy eating nectar from the kowhai trees to notice us.
I was trying to get a shot of the reeds in the water, but my
view was mostly obstructed. I think the shots I got are quite
moody and interesting, though.

a little color
I looked out the back window yesterday and though the trees toward the left of the shot looked faintly colorful, so I went to get the camera just in case it turned out to be an interesting photo.
I only had to wait a few seconds to find out I was right! There was a faint rainbow near the ground.

Hubby's sunrise
One of the great things about where we live is that we have our own special sunsets and sunrises. I take sunset shots and Hubby takes the sunrises :)

Garden colors
These brave blooms are what's left of my summer garden. I can always count on my dahlias for color, even with autumn on our doorstep!
