It was our next to last day and a cloudy day, so we made our way to the Allerton section of the national tropical garden where the flowers were remarkable and speak for themselves.
before we came upon this bit of environmental art -- the twig house
|
where we gathered
for a group selfie
as roosters gathered nearby
and I recorded the support structures
and some fronds on the ground
as Suzanne oversaw the scene
with the roosters
before we returned to admiring the flowers and other plantings
|
with a break for roosters
and the stream
and then back to this tree
and these flowers
|
with the bus in the background
as the flowers kept on coming
|
before Suzanne and I posed
and then the exploration of flowers continued
|
before we came to the Michelle Obama tree
and then even more lovely flowers and trees.
|
All of the flower viewing made us need these drinks
as this bird passed while we ate our lunch
and then Suzanne spoke with her new friend.
