Well there ya go Max... the difference in Latitude, eh.
Ours (BC) show no sign, tho' being away for the week I'll get up the back
and check them later on. The bottlebrush(s) on the driveway are
just covered in bloom. Deepest red, they look great!
[later]
Found the Darwin Weeping Willow in bloom and alive with bees.
In contrast to the bottlebrush you have to look for the flowers as
you'll hear the bees first.
Cheers..
