ABC Wednesday - G

Grapefruit


Soon to become glorious Grapefruit Marmalade.

Ginkgo Biloba


A unique species of tree with no living relatives.  It is a living fossil similar to fossils dating back 270  million years. Native to China it has a number of medicinal uses.  It's getting ready for autumn, you can see the edge of the leaves starting to turn gold before winter.

Gulls


Gathering wherever people linger and ready to grab any food that heads their way.
