Morning stroll in the yard…

Why do two colors,

put one next to the other, sing?

Can one really explain this?

no.

Just as one can never learn how to paint.

Beautiful Bird of Paradise flower...only nature could have blended those colours so well.
Loved the pink mandevilla as well.
The pink, red and white mandevillas grow slowly here, but the yellow one has to be trimmed every minute.

I like the last picture of the tiny frog, Joe on the croton leaf. It look so cute and coy.

Inspire me, to peek into the back porch, walk out through the screen door, SMELL the morning- and to get coffee, and read more of your blog!
