Wishing everyone a wonderful 2009! 
Last week I took a photo of 3 baby blue wrens in the garden. We were so lucky to see them yet alone have time to get a camera and take a photo. Hopefully they will grow their tails and become strong little wrens to eat lots more insects in the gardens and nursery!
Hopefully in 2009 I will be able to blog some more. I have to remember that they only need be short and sweet with a picture.

In 2007 I discovered a new orchid on our property – just after flowering and setting seed. Ben was fairly sure that it was a sun orchid of some type but we 
would need to keep an eye on it and determine what species it was when it flowered next. Well last October we were able to check during the day at the spot where it grew and we were able to see it flower and I could take a photo. The photo helped confirm that the orchid was what we suspected, indeed it was a sun orchid Thelymitra vulgaris (‘vulgar’ meaning common) or the Common Sun Orchid only opens each flower for one day when the conditions are right and of course only if it is a warm sunny day.

My name is Anouska Cousin and live on a small acerage in Karnup, Western Australia. I have just started this blog to write about myself, uni work, my small business ‘Nuts about Natives’ which I co own and run (when I get a chance) with Ben Croxford and life in general on our property with various wildlife. I am still learning this new web blog stuff so it will get better and I might join this century and get broadband at home rather than the ancient dialup.
I hope to post some photos of a trip to NSW for my brothers wedding soon. We visited a few National Parks and got to see some real rainforest – native palms, large eucs and strangler figs, treeferns and waterfalls and different birds. So different to south west WA.
