Wonderful Day
The day started with an almost traditional tractor delivery:
Fantastic giant welded flowers for the garden!
More for the garden:
Two fringe flowers (Lorepetalum chinense rubrum), "China Pink" and "Plum Gorgeous", and a rose, "Eiffel Tower".
And then we had snow!
Melting as it fell, but it was actual falling snow.
Later in the morning I went to visit my parents. On the way home we saw this:
Picture taken through the rear view mirror, so not brilliant. But that is a wedge-tailed eagle! It was eating a poor kangaroo that had been hit by a car. There were two eagles but one took off as we stopped the ute to get the photo. They really are huge when you get that close to them!
In the afternoon some friends and family helped with the celebration:
There is no significance to the number of candles. As we ate cake we watched spinebills in the salvias outside the window.
What a wonderful day!

Hi Vireya love your new plants and wow you got snow i said to hubby it is cold enough for snow and its freezing today as well,stay warm my friend and hope you have a lovely day xx
Interesting welded flowers.....
Must be very cold where you are to snow. We don't seam to be getting winter as it's still in mid to high 20s during the day but cold enough to snuggle under a quilt at night.
What a wonderful variety to your day. Love the eagle, they fly so gracefully.
A perfect day from beginning to end. What a treat to see the wedge-tailed eagles, magnificent creatures.
Love the deep color of the leaves on your two plants--so yummy--as does that cake look, too!!
Amazing to get that close to an eagle...hugs, Julierose
I love those welded flowers. We are still having such cool temperatures here. Our son went skiing over the weekend and got about 10” of fresh snow. It’s crazy. Yes, that IS a big bird.
Snow! Wow it has been cold for May, but snow really does say COLD! Lovely gifts, especially the rusty flowers and those purple foliage plants are gorgeous, Happy birthday!
Yes it has turned cold... but as long as the sun shines I feel energetic. But when grey... I hide in my cubbyhole... xox
How wonderful that you could see the eagles! Delicious looking cake!
Beautiful tart and interesting helicopters - candle holders. Marie
Snow??? It is 96 here today.
We have had a cold snap here too. HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
