Blooming Banksia

My Birthday Candles are in full bloom. ...and if you look closely, you can see a pair of flies enjoying a snack of nectar on the top of the closest flower.

This photo was taken almost a month after this shot http://365project.org/corymbia/365/2012-03-19

I love Australian flora.

In other news, my brother bought me a finger lime tree today - Australia's native citrus fruit. So happy :)
Gorgeous candles Amanda. Love the detail
