kaberettHighlights:
- seeing cesy and alexwlchan :)
- A spotted a jay!
- A also spotted a jackdaw going into a tree; we both watched it come back out
- PARAKEETS. doing lots of excellent bouncing around and flaring their tails so we got to appreciate the yellow on the underside!
- GOSLINGS (Egyptian; seven)
- went up to the walkway in the Temperate House
- excellent trumpet-y flowers in the Temperate House, the name of which I singularly failed to obtain (Brugmansia sanguinea, I think)
- tiiiiiiny hot pink pine cones, on a tree near the Araucaria and the Wollemi, whose name I also failed to obtain
- Euphorbia candelabrum! ... although none of the images I can find online look like the (clearly-labelled) thing I took a photo of, so perhaps I will see if I can tweak the photograph to the point of usefulness rather than simply aide memoire
- spring springing all over the place: the carpets of crocuses and scilla, and the various trees covered in flowers, the green in the process of bursting forth. :)
