Happy Chinese New Year (for yesterday that is) and Happy Australia Day also! Wikipedia informs me that the Japanese name for koi is jinli or nishikigoi which translates as "brocaded carp". Also, they are a traditional Japanese symbol of luck, prosperity and good fortune which I hope for all in 2020.

Happy New Year!

A Toucan and fruit for the beginning of 2020! 

Merry Christmas etc!

I send my good wishes to one and all with my gif that features: two (native Australian) Peacock Carpenter bees (that I was very fortunate to see in person on one of my bush walks!), a posey of flannel flowers, two sprays of gum blossoms and a coastal banksia.
