A delight to see and and the scent was wonderful ! Photographed in a front garden as I gave Marnie a late afternoon walk around the block. So good to meet neighbours I didn't know existed, simply walking round the block 😃.

 

I think this is Philadelphus Lemoinei (you may disagree) !

The mocking cliff chat, mocking chat or cliff chat, (thamnolaea cinnamomeiventris) is a species of chat in the family Muscicapidae which occurs in rocky habitats in much of eastern Sub-Saharan Africa. The mocking cliff chat is a large chat with distinctive colouration. The male has a glossy black with a chestnut belly, vent, and rump and white shoulder patches. The shoulder patches vary in size geographically. The female is dark grey with a chestnut lower breast, belly, and vent. The mocking cliff chat has a length of 19–21 cm and weigh 41–51g. The mocking cliff chat is mainly insectivorous but also eats fruit and feeds on the nectar of aloes, such as the Krantz aloe, Aloe arborescens.

Thanks for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc. I really appreciate it very much.

 

Hello there,

 

The Mock Orange bushes are just beginning to bloom. If the weather is just right and they are in full bloom, these flowers emit a lovely perfume. And if you're wondering if they produce oranges, no, they are strictly ornamental shrubs.

 

Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving me a comment. I do love hearing from you!

 

Have a marvelous day!
