Morning all,
I write this from the fertile south-east corner of the state of New South Wales, Australia.
It is a damp, whistling morning, alive with birds. I love nothing more than to walk in my garden with a morning cuppa before the workaday craziness begins. Forest surrounds my flower garden and vegie patch. My friends this morning? A Lewin's honeyeater in the mulberry tree, sunflowers about to burst into bloom, two huge ripening tomatoes (dinner on my mind). Less loved - the horde of metallic flea beatles on my potatoes, gorging on the leaves, reducing the future crop. Will a tea of the native tobacco plant see to them? We'll find out.
All part of the life cycle.
This Life Cycle Steemit blog is my attempt to place myself - momentarily - in flux. A pause, with pictures, reflections, sounds.
Today, a froggie friend, found on the tree fern at our backdoor in the dying light of 2017 - a Peron's tree frog.
This is what he sounds like: https://soundcloud.com/user-475448687/perons-tree-frog-and-friend
Happy New Year, Steemers.
PS. I am proud mum to @Bulleth, who introduced me to Steem!
Steem on!

The only trouble I intend to cause is to the metallic flea beetles eating my spuds, but I will keep an eye on that troublesome @bulleth
