Flowers and Night Birds
Daylily "Ginny Mitchell" which last flowered in 2011:
The roses are fantastic this year.
One of these roses is "Just Joey", and the other is "Brandy". I think Just Joey is above and Brandy is below. But I could be wrong!

Two southern boobook owls, Ninox boobook. Their red eyes are from the camera flash. The place they roost during the day is above a road, so the droppings that accumulate underneath them are a bit of a give-away to their location. But they aren't easy to see, even when you know they are there.

I presume it is the same adult and baby, anyway.

That daylily is gorgeous! Your roses are blooming like gangbusters - so pretty. I always love seeing your bright colors of summer.
Love the colours. Getting a steady view of white here. It did melt two days ago but then snowed again yesterday.
Lovely roses, mine are having a second flush.
The owls are marvellous. I love that they can fly silently, quite eerie when one flies through the garden at night.
lovely roses.Merry Christmas to you
