A refreshing reprieve for those of us who celebrate the holidays in
shades of gray and white. Thanks for sharing.

G'day All,
The stereotypical Christmas image. Snow covered trees, crackling logs
on the open fire, roasting chestnuts, big bloke in red rugged up
against the cold. It all seems a bit inappropriate in this part of the
world. Ask Rob if he feels like standing around an open fire at the
moment :-)
But I digress. This years Christmas miracle in the Savage household,
all be it a day early, is that I got up with the birds on a Saturday
morning to take some pictures of the native West Australian "Christmas
Tree" (Nuytsia floribunda) which is in flower at this time of year.
I've put together a small gallery (8 images) showing what they look
like (the last 2 shots are of a variety of Banksia), and I thought I'd
share:

Wishing you & yours a happy, healthy & safe holiday season,
