Plum trees have more than fruit amidst the foliage...

Look at that gorgeous face !
Evening snacking Rainbow Lorikeet,while we were dining el fresco in our backyard,tonight.
We were enjoying BBQ-ed banana dessert(recipe to follow) and this cheeky chappy was voicing his opinon about our plums to us.A tad concerned here,as the others seem to have vanished,leaving us with only a mated pair of lorikeets to entertain and clean up the plums,which is unusual.Hopefully the late rains have them busy elsewhere....goodness knows I only slave over pruning,watering and fertilising the plum tree for 1 bowl of plums and evening acrobatics from these beauties !
Speaking of pruning(sob) my 100 year old lemon tree has had to be butchered...more later,after I've finished the hacking(sob).

BBQ-ed Banana dessert-
Take either normal 'nanas or lady finger 'nanas,peel,lay on sheet of foil,press choc chips into side(as many as you can fit along 1 side).
Sprinkle with coconut and nuts(optional),wrap up in foil,place on bbq.
Leave for 20mins(depending on bbq heat),serve with ice cream.
YUM.

Again...isn't that bird a stunningly beautiful exhibit of nature ?!
