This morning I picked these from the garden.
There's also a pile of tomatoes that also need picking.
The heat has done a lot of damage to my poor garden.
Today is also forecasted to be 40 plus.
We have 4 rain water tanks and these are used to water the garden.
The apples are almost ready to pick.
Fern and I tried one while we did the morning pick.
Our one winged, nine lived, Rooster Rocky.
The others are this years chicks. They have grown.
We still don't know which are roosters and which are hens.

Sir Frances The drake is in the background on patrol of his domain.
He's a lovely drake, very placid. I often go and chat to him. He's a great listener too.

You are so productive Tracy, you put me to shame.
Looks good, Tracy. Our watermelons didn't do at all well this year, but we are hoping for a better year next year now we know what the problem is - lack of magnesium in the soil.
Wow Tracy, I would love to have a garden. That fruit looks wonderful. Do you get eggs from the chickens?
Oooh that watermelon looks gorgeous! Did it taste good?
Hi Tracy,
I love your blog!
If you'd like to read about another rooster of mine (with a number of lives like Rocky) you can read all about Harley here http://lifeatspringrock.blogspot.com/2008/12/mulitple-deaths-of-harley.html
I have a few duck stories too. Bob was a Teagles refugee who had an identity crisis.
