Monday Morning Photo - Wisteria Time in Andalucia

How quickly spring comes around after the short winter here in the Sierra Sur de Jaén. After lots of very much needed rain we´re back to the normal cloudless blue.  My garden is shooting incredbily with the moisture and now sunshine. And my beautiful wisteria flowers grandly albeit it short-lived. The big black carpenter bees love it. Each flowering season reminds me of the Botanical Gardens in Malaga and the ´tunnel´ of wisteria that I haven´t yet caught in bloom. April is a good time to plan to go if it´s on your list.  Here´s the botanical garden link La Concepción Botanical Gardens. And a sneaky peak at the wisteria. See the Monday Morning Photos list.

CBBH Monthly Photo Challenge - Full Circle

It's been a while since I took part in Marianne from East of Malaga's CBBH Photo Challenge. The title 'Full Circle' took my fancy, having just been looking through some photos I instantly thought of these.






Every olive tree as far as the eye can see and beyond has a circle of land underneath prepared for the olive harvest to start in December. These pics were taken from a walk along the Via Verde de Aceite between Martos and Alcaudete which we walked in early December to see the Roman Bridge.


Then on completing the post I realised I'm a month behind! I thought I'd publish the post anyway. Enjoy the ocean of olive trees in Jaen province and if you'd like to visit the area check out my holiday rental home Casa El Reguelo.
