What's looking good in June 2015

How would your vegetarian co-worker know it tasted of chicken??

We just thought it looked like chunks of chicken.
I don't really know how long she has been vegetarian, her family isn't so she may have actually eaten it!!!!

Remembered my camera again in the evening - so here is another at the opposite end of the day - a young " Caesalpinia Gilliesii " or " Bird of Paradise Tree " taken just as the sun was setting last night

What an intricate and interesting plant, lovely colours and shapes

That's beautiful @gata montes!

I spotted a Cinnabar moth today, don't think I've ever seen one before. This was the best photo I could get:

I've not seen one of these and would have mistakingly thought it was a butterfly. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. It would be magnificent in flight.

The cat, his name is Sarafi, is his own person. He makes his own decisions and laughs at whatever he wishes.

He lives four houses away but has decided that he also owns our garden and house.

Safari looks like a very content cat and so he should be with all his properties, regular land baron. I'm a cat lover. My Pearl, a very beautiful Britsh Blue, is curled up in the crook of my arm as I lean forward uncomfortably typing one handed so I don't disturb her. Heaven forbid should I sneeze!!! She doesn't like that.

Took these photos of baby fruits earlier in the week and as the fruits are now way bigger than they were then - thought I'd post them.....................

Membrillos or Quince as they I think they are called in English

Baby Watermelon
