It is —
in the garden.
Twenty-four hours, one turn of the dial
Noon at the top, midnight below; the sun rises on the left and sets on the right, as it does seen from the gardens. The ring is today’s real sky. The golden bloom is how many of the animals recorded here are out at each moment of the day. Turn the dial, or let it play.
A note in fairness to the animals: these hours come from what is known of each species, and nobody has shown the dial to the birds. Take every time with a grain of salt.
Who is out in the garden
Most active is a habit, not a promise. Read this as a good moment to wander out with a coffee, not an appointment. The iguanas, in particular, answer to no one.
In flower
It has been growing for this long.
On 27 May 2014, as the first rains of the season softened the ground, Dandapani and Tatiana planted the first tree on the land: a coconut palm. More than nine thousand trees and plants have followed it.
