Can't argue with the apricot

The apricot tree is the first in our orchard to decide that it is time to come out of winter hibernation. This seems to have been met with approval by the resident weavers and some stray Southern Double-collared Sunbirds. Actually, I never knew these blossoms had enough nectar to make them attractive to birds - unless they were just smelling the blossoms? I had to take break from chopping wood to catch some of the action:



Proof it wasn't just some coincidental perching!

  1. It seems strange you have all that blossom and colourful birds when we are losing a lot of ours. Look out for my Swallows.
