Silky Oak (Grevilla Robusta) (Explore)

Springtime bring the Silky Oak into flower which in turn attracts numerous 'honey eater' species of birds who feed off the flowers nectar. The birds move so fast in and out of the branches that I've been unable to take a keeper shot of them so far.

This Australian native tree is the largest member of the Grevilla family growing in height up to 40 metres, which is a worry as it's close to my new home which is in cyclone (hurricane) country!
