Saw these two parrots outside the Adelaide City Botanic Garden on the tree... i was wondering what they were doing,in fact, i think they are checking their babies. These photos was taken couple months ago, when i went there yesterday, i saw another 2 parrots doing the same thing. Perhaps they are the same one.. anyway, of course i have taken another few shots of them.
Another shot taken at Rattlesnake Point Conservation Area (Niagra Escarpment)

Bright, a town in north-east Victoria, is situated in the Ovens Valley and is part of the Alpine Region of Victoria. 210 kilometres from Melbourne, Bright was one of the towns in the Ovens Valley where gold was discovered. Gold was found near the junction of Morses Creek and the Ovens River in the 1850s. Established in 1862 and named Bright, most likely after John Bright (1811 - 1889) an English publicist, reformer and parliamentarian the township thrived. With the Gold Rush in full swing, Bright soon had Catholic, Wesleyan and Presbyterian churches, schools, three hotels, three quartz mills and two bank branches. As the yield of gold declined in the 1870s, so too did Bright’s population, yet by the 1880s, it became an alpine tourism town. The Bright Alpine club was formed in 1887 and a community library was started there in 1889. In the following year Bright was connected by railway to Myrtleford and Wangaratta, bringing with it much needed tourists from Melbourne. In 1910 a grand chalet was opened at Mount Buffalo and Bright ran a hire car service for visitors, who often stayed there overnight at a hotel or guesthouse. In 1919 a secondary school was opened in Bright. It also had a tourist progress association and local angling, bowling, racing, tennis and golf clubs amongst its many attractions. By the mid 1920s the people of Bright began planting exotic trees partly for landscape improvement and partly to lay the summer dust. The street tree plantings produced extraordinary autumn colours. By 1933, Bright was described as the “Tourism Capital of the Ovens Valley”. Bright’s train line continued until 1983 when it was finally discontinued and replaced with coaches. By that time, it was a well established tourism town with people flocking there all throughout the year for different reasons. Bright is a base for exploring the peaks of Mount Buffalo National Park and Alpine National Park as well as Mount Hotham, a popular ski resort. Bright is a starting point for the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail, a hiking and cycling path. Bright Museum, in the town’s former train station, documents rail and gold rush history. The region is also known for wineries and of course its amazing display of autumnal foliage.
While hiking yesterday I found the most beautiful maple trees. Their color was brilliant in the evening sun. Chosen for Explore #245 Nov. 6, 2008.
Wandiligong is a town in north-eastern Victoria in the alpine region around 330 kilometres from Melbourne. Established in the 1850s as part of the Victorian Gold Rush, Wandiligong became a hub for many gold miners, including a large Chinese community. At its peak, the town was home to over two thousand inhabitants and boasted shops, churches, a public library, halls and even an hotel. Much has changed since those heady days of the gold rush, and the picturesque town nestled in a valley and built around the Morses Creek, is now a sleepy little town full of picturesque houses which are often let to visitors to the area. The whole town is registered with the National Trust of Australia for its historic landscape and buildings of historic value.
Porepunkah is a town in north east Victoria. Built along the Great Alpine Road, at the foot of Mount Buffalo, it is 320 kilometres from Melbourne. It is part of the local epicurean region and features several wineries. This includes the Feathertop Winery which features a gourmet restaurant and views of wonderful grapevines which turn red and gold during the autumnal months.
It is outside the Feathertop Winery that this pretty row of deciduous exotic trees stands. They were too beautiful basking in the afternoon sun not to stop and photograph.
A visit in our Botanical Garden is a feast for the eyes in every season.
But in autumn when the leaves of the lovely old trees turn, it is breathtaking.
Ein Besuch in unserem Botanischen Garten ist zu jeder Jahreszeit eine
Augenweide.
Im Herbst jedoch, wenn sich die Blätter der alten Bäume färben, ist
es ein Farbenrausch...

Japanese Maple acer palmatum "Rising Sun" japonicum). I found this one tree December 10th at the DABG, surrounded by other maples without any color left, and it was difficult to get a photo. This variety must be late for fall color and the leaves are uncommonly large, about 8 inches across. I can visualize a mass planting of them for an outrageous fall color display.
Red, orange, and yellow fall color. Height: 8-10 Feet. Spread: 8-10 Feet. Zoned: 5-8.
Taking down my 70 year old maple, badly split and ready to fall any day, btw that's not me with the chainsaw!
This is an older photo of mine (July 1990), that I recently rediscovered while going through bins of pictures. It was taken along what used to be a main road in my hometown, a portion of which eventually became our driveway.
There are many old maple trees growing along the stone walls that line both sides. It's been 10+ years since I've visited this spot, and even then many of the oldest and biggest trees were dying. This tree is no longer standing. Not far from here are the ruins of an old sugarhouse, so it's likely this tree was once tapped for making maple syrup.

In corona times my photographic radius is concentrated more inwards and on the garden and nature.
What is it about Vermont? Gently winding country roads, maple trees peaking, the most friendly people who will stop and talk to you about the most interesting happenings. Maple Syrup. Rolling fields of freshly mowed grass. It's a been a great 40 year Odyssey.

Maple Park Cemetery was founded in 1876 to be closer to downtown Springfield. It prominently features many maple trees and the colors are always spectacular. Here's a small sample from two years ago.
