Life in the garden!






A custard apple which gave us fruits for three years got damaged in a storm and its main stem was in the process of decay. Following the recent rain, a shoot is growing arising from its root. It surprised me. 

The early signs of winter setting in our garden are the dew drops, noticeable early in the morning on the rose plants and some rose plants blooming.

Two birds were noticed in our front garden, one a Bulbul at the feeding station and another one an Oriole, after the birds stayed away for five days following the accidental injury to a Barbet to which it succumbed. 


The nests in this tree in our garden announce the breeding season. The Bulbuls and Sunbirds are the birds who breed during this time of the year. 

They were the sights and surprises of this morning!

More to come with winter setting in!
