Layout that shows my Garden in spring time . I love the fact that
My garden gives me lots of photos through out the year.

On the photo that is on the right hand side there is a tiny bird
sitting on the log. If you look hard enough you can see him above
the whit flower.

This is a beautiful place where we visit in summer it's 10 mins away from my home and it really gets back to the wilderness of Tassie . I'm so lucky to have a wonderful spot to take photos . I love the peace you feel when out there walking around .
