Monday Mural - Fauna and Flora in Attadale

I love murals and street art. If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme is for you.  Just follow the Linky steps below.  Once you start looking you will find murals everywhere.  The "Monday Mural" meme goes live on Monday at 12,01AM, Perth, Western Australian time. Be sure to link back to this blog and visit your fellow posters. Looking forward to your mural finds this week.  Thanks, Sami.

A mural from Perth this time - sorry for the photo overload, but it is a very, very long mural with so many beautiful subjects...

This mural was painted in September 2021 by West Australian artist Imogen Palmer, in the triangular shaped Davis Lawlor Reserve in the riverside suburb of Attadale.

The community was asked to help the artist paint the background of the mural in a paint-by-numbers style, and Imogen added the details of local fauna and flora.
