Spotted locally, this notice about proposed higher density housing around #Melbourne.
Note there are no proposals for more than 10 storeys anywhere in this area (#Bentleigh), and of course it would only happen if people sell their properties.

I can only imagine the (alleged) scenario that led to this. #Bentleigh #RickWilson

Today’s #Bentleigh flyer from local Federal MP Zoe Daniel - the volunteer looked almost surprised that I’d take it. I always do - from virtually anybody - political engagement is to be encouraged, especially around railway stations! #auspol

Check out this #Freesia. Have only spotted a couple and managed to stop to snap this one during my working day.

They are native to the eastern side of southern Africa, from Kenya south to South Africa.

They have fragrant funnel-shaped flowers, and these were sweet with a perfumed aroma.

They come in many colours of the rainbow, including a variety of shades (mixes).

Its nectar produces Mānuka honey.
