The only flora in flower that I could see on my stroll around the block was mistletoe. If I’d been a few minutes earlier I might have managed to find it in the sunshine and therefore a little brighter. I quite like the framing afforded by the branches.

I note that wikipedia (as non-authoritative as it may be) suggests that there are at least 85 species of mistletoe in Australia. That’s 84 more than I know about.

Looking a little out of this world, a small piece of lichen was growing on a quite dead and weathered tree stump. It’s about 2 cm (less than 1 inch) across.
