CooCoo for Coconuts ^_^

And here is the Coconut tree! Just look at those huge coconuts ready to fall to the ground & offer up sweet nourishing milk - YUM fresh from the tree! That is if team monkey doesn't get them first! LOL That coconut tree drew me in - I loved it from the time I moved into that house. That portion of the yard has nice sandy loam soil and twice daily in the dry season I watered it - having hired a groomer to come and trim it a couple of times. Just to pull off dead leaves to encourage new growth. My chickens pecked and scratched at the foot of that tree - and to the left is a male mango tree - encouraging an entire soi of females to product plump juicy mangos through the growing season. To the right is a "snake bush" that does attract snakes to come & roost in the entwining branches - looking to catch a small humming bird unaware. Yes - I'm beginning to miss my garden & coconut tree - yet I smile knowing I helped bring new life to a forgotten little patch of promise all those years ago - with the love of a coconut tree
