Mosaic Monday ... The Sound Of Music ... Ah, I Mean The Sound Of Rain!


Raindrops on rooftop and raindrops on flowers,



Birds and the dry bush are covered by showers,


Grey skies and grey clouds at the end of our Spring,


These are a few of my favourite things!

Yes, it looks as if the dry season is coming to an end for this year.  It was relatively short ... only seven months without rain this time around ... but it's always a harsh time.  Now it seems that the wet season is not too far off.  The garden could certainly do with some decent rainfall, so roll in those rain clouds!!

Enjoy lots of fabulous Mosaic Monday posts at Mary's Little Red House

    Of course it must be fantastic to have some rain after so many months with dry weather. I like the photo of the red hibiscus very much. Enjoy the rain and have a nice week.

    Hi Bernie, I am sure you plants and flowers are very happy to drink up the rain after the dry season. The birds look very wet but very pretty too. Wonderful post and mosaic. Have a great day!

    I think of the end of your spring is lovely...love the rain on the awning. It is all so pretty. Winter is just about here. Just came in from pulling up the dead stuff from the garden...it looked so bad and so sad. Glad it is cleaned up for the show to come. Hope all if well with you. School is back in session after our giving holiday. It was nice to stay at home. genie
