Melbourne Holiday - Cranbourne Botanic Gardens

We visited the Cranbourne Botanic Gardens on a Sunday, have lunch there first before we explore the gardens.

The garden was established in 1970 and contains one of Victoria's most precious areas of native bushland and is home to an amazing range of plants and animal life.

I took about 300+ photos with my DSLR and my wife took about 100+ just with her iPhone camera.... during the few hours there...!!!

Here are some photos, enjoy ...

A bit of drizzle so the hood came out to cover the head

These are called Black Boys....!

The gardens are very near to Pearcedale where we were staying at my younger sister's home for the weekend.
