.............. this Treasure Tuesday hosted by the lovely Melody
Can you see the mountains in the background?
~ there is a pronounced mountain..... further behind that - it's almost centre picture .... way back on the horizon
That's the Bunya Mountains
viewed from home
there will be beautiful views
wonderful rock formations
we may even be surprised by a handsome local
spot the last of the seeding native shrubs before winter
look at the tree tops in the forest
admire carpets of fern
knotted limbs
we'll stop for a picnic
and watch the red wallaby's snacking
afterwards we'll follow a stream
to pretty little tinkling waterfalls
observe the bark of the Bunya pine
admire the tallest of tall Bunya trees
admire miniature gardens in trees
"looks like when you tangle your knitting" says Him
I treasure the outings we have
even if seeing it all means going back up
It seems tree writing is not a modern idea
(August 1926)
A couple more views on the way home
remember the first picture looking this way
this one is looking back
this one is looking back
in between the trees is home
and on the way home a lovely surprise
Echidna
my favouritist of all
moves jolly quick for a little fella
Hope you enjoyed your walk
I really treasure our day's out - pictures taken this last Sunday
My legs are so stiff and sore today so I'll just sit with my coffee and pop over HERE for a read
G'day

Thanks for taking us on your walk Fiona, you live in a lovely part of the world!
Nice walk, thank you! I love Bunya pines but know not to stand under them....those nuts can be a bit deadly if they fall and hit you.
Thank you for the beautiful walk. My foot is not sore at all. Bl--dy spur.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing your walk.
Hey Fiona! I LOVE the Bunya's!! We visited often as kids and then when I was at uni in Toowoomba, a trip to the Bunyas cleared the head before exams. We had our wedding night up there and try to get up for a visit once a year ... or so ... been a while this time! :0) Thanks for sharing your lovely pics! Hope this weekend is as fun - Bear Hugs!
