Ice on the bird bath this morning Down Under. Wrapped up the citrus last night - hopefully frost hardier as they get older. Both fires going this morning as the old had had no insulation. Yet…

Rainy morning and horses. #CaperteeValley #Australia #Horses
Five horses walking single file in the rain. Two dark horses in front then two greys and another dark one at the rear, all moving diagonally away from the viewer. A wet paddock in the foreground then some trees a line of thick white fog and above that the mist covered slopes and cliffs of The Great Dividing Range in The Capertee Valley, NSW Australia.

Looking toward Glen Davis NSW. The two Mulberry trees in the foreground have quite distinctive colouring. Their blossoms frosted off this Spring so no berries.
