Pictures 3-14-08

The giraffes Sister Bishop spotted along side the road last Friday.

The trees here are amazing for some of their blooms. About the time one species looses it blossoms for the year a different one catches our fancy. This one with the clumps of yellow flowers is currently in bloom and one of the natives tells us it is called a bavaria or something like that.

We have always been intrigued by the bright blue body and yellow head but they are so fast and bashful that we haven't been able to get close for a good picture. Can you see it on the pile of bricks?

We really enjoy seeing how the little ones here enjoy life. These guys are part of a group that shows up each Friday at Ilima to see if we have any sweets. How do you tell them no?
