This month reminds me of the reason why I love Cape Trib and choose to live here. Great swimming and sunbaking weather. Even the chooks are sunbaking.
The vegetable garden is thriving and the fruit trees are starting to bud. The Jaboticaba are flowering, the Malay Roseapples are feeding the bats, and the first Durians are now budding. We are eating our first Abiu for the season - beautiful creme caramel flavours that I had nearly forgotten.
The young cassowary teenagers are now starting to appear around the house on their own. Dad is off courting the female in the next valley. The teenagers seem very vulnerable, and nervous.
The large lace monitors are now stalking the chickens and raiding the chicken house for the eggs.
