We've had everything in the last month or so from the vilely tropical (street as sauna) to the freezing (well, freezing for Sydney this time of year). But in between the bees have been a buzzin', especially round the bottlebrushes which, in our yard, finally flowered in profusion this year, and also the cherry tree, now long past the blossoming but which since has produced a number of edible berries (for those that don't know, cherries would not normally stand a snowflake's chance in hell in Sydney). Best, Jill
