From the garden

Only got time for a quick posting today and then on the run again.

Thanks to everyone who commented on yesterday's photo 'fountain' if I haven't already got back to you.

We have been out most of the day at Lemon Tree Passage with our walking group and then out for lunch with them all.

From there I went to Tanilba to drop off a photo for Helen, the owner of Tanilba House before heading for home.

Just got time to post today's photo, then off for a quick shower and out again to the Tavern tonight for our weekly trivia night.

Sorry I haven't got time at the moment to catch up, with get up to date tomorrow.

I am sure Sally @hermann will be able to tell me what this cloud formation is.

I walked into the garden this morning to check how warm the weather was before setting off with our walking group and saw these lovely clouds.
Love this! Fantastic colours and the clouds are great!

We all rely on Sally @hermann to come to the rescue for cloud names :)
They're great clouds by the way. Okay, I'm going to take a guess at Cirrocumulus or mackeral sky as we used to call it.

Lovely cloud formation and great angled shot Babs...Fav
February 5th, 2015

Such pretty clouds Babs and the contrast with your shrubs is great

Lovely fresh and pretty image Babs. Pretty sure they are Altocumulus :)

@onewing Nor me Babs, she's the cloud queen around here.

@hermann Sally to the rescue! I had no idea, I looked them up and I couldn't tell what's what at all!

@gigiflower Thanks Sam. Yes its a frangipani, it is huge and the smell is amazing.
The other trees at the back are blackbutt, bottlebrush, photinia and umbrella tree.
February 5th, 2015  
@hermann Thanks Sally, I knew you would be able to enlighten us all.
February 5th, 2015

@nikharris @derekvickers @sioux @lan @chimfa @888rachel @tonygig @flyrobin @thistle @pcoulson @happypat @ceilidh @rosiekerr Thanks everyone, Thanks to Sally, the correct name for the clouds are altocumulus.
The trees are, for our non Aussie friends, blackbutt, bottlebrush, photinia, umbrella tree and the one at the front with the flowers is a frangipani.

Nice composition Babs and very pretty little fluffy clouds, like cotton wool balls. Good luck at the quiz!
February 5th, 2015  
Beautiful clouds indeed!!! Trivia sounds like fun...enjoy. (but you have probably already been there and are now fast asleep?? It is 6pm here..maybe you are just rising?

All this lush green and bright blue sky with those cotton puffy clouds. I would dearly love some of that green here right about now but I'll settle for your beautiful shots. Great POV too.
February 6th, 2015  
So pretty! Love the spots of clouds in the sky!
February 6th, 2015  
What a great pov
February 6th, 2015  
What a fab sky Babs. Take time to smell the roses!
February 6th, 2015  
gorgeous sky - wonderful greens and blues
February 6th, 2015  
@paulaw Thanks Paula, we did win one round, but not the whole quiz, but that's not what it all about for us, we just have fun.
One of the questions was which horses won the Melbourne Cup in 2013 and 2014. The answer we came up with was "a brown one and a black one", but for some reason he marked that as incorrect. haha.
February 6th, 2015  
@eyesmile Thanks Gena. Trivia is fun and we have a great time.
February 6th, 2015  
@dgrynn Thanks Deb. I would send you some sunshine if I could.

@golftragic Thanks Marnie, I do take time to smell the roses as often as I can.
