Oh dear! Is that rain?

After all our hot weather, the first day of 2016 (I had written 1916! Thanks Debbie) is showery and cool :) Thought it appropriate to start the year with a trustworthy N.Z Honeyeater who always gave me great photo opportunities last year! I have to thank Jack too, who never fails to entertain my photographic antics! Thanks for all your beautiful comments on my final photo for 2015 - your friendship, fun comments and your photos is what is keeping me going for a third year. Thanks :)
