Yes, being an avid mountain biker has always drawn me to watch native plants, animals and birds.

Recently planted a couple of Grevillea Robusta trees and they are now taking off. From memory I think they can grow to 10m high but have the most vivid colour flowers.
Sorta of like a tree version of the toothbrush grevillea.

It amazing how you can determine the change in seasons by the bird life.
Approx. a month ago we started seeing Currawongs come down off the high country which follow the Bogong moths as both can not live in the snow covered mountains. They set up camp at lower altitudes for winter where the birds are having some fat suppers.
Gang Gang parrots are another who fly down to the lower Beechworth area feasting on the chestnut and oak pods.
So good to see these visitors.
