The gentle folds of this delicate rose took my eye as the backlighting caught the textures of the petals.

Unearthed (literally!)…
I have a new theme for the blog which I think will be better suited. Apologies in advance for any odd or blank email notifications – I want to create some different pages with galleries, etc and is work in progress. Please let me know if there are problems viewing it and feedback, as always, is welcome on the new look…..and so to the image today. Not the best technically but this little frog literally missed death by spade by millimetres during some clearing work. I believe it is called a Victorian Frog (Litoria paraewingi) and was about 3 cm long – safely relocated 🙂
World Wide Web….?
Today there was low cloud that was almost like drizzle. Spider webs were amazing.
Lonely trees…
The point of the story
Today I came across an Echnida (Tachyglossus aculeatus) on the side of a quiet dirt road from Baynton to Kyneton in central Victoria. On one hand it is like a hedgehog or an ant eater, but on the other hand, it is nothing like them. It is one of the last two egg laying mammals in Australia, the other is the Platypus (which we do see here, though very rarely).
Red sky in the morning….
Gum trees facing east as the sun rises through the smoke haze from distant bush fires. Click on the image for best view.
I’m lichen it!
The Camels Hump is the highest peak of Mount Macedon situated in central Victoria. The air is very clean allowing for a variety of different types of lichen to flourish. It also has Snowgums, the hardiest type of all Eucalypt.
Who’s looking at who?!
