Trees

Recent photos on our drive we came across these lovely trees with a lot of moss growing on them.  So I clicked away with my phone as I didn't take the digital camera. 
A wet area but this last month February was a dry one.

  1. Good shots.
    I like photographing trees as well. As a matter of fact, that is what I did yesterday when I went to the park for a walk. But I only focused on their trunks this time.

    1. Always interesting are trees, everyone of them different. The trunks of these trees in the photo were not big.

  2. Such overgrown trees look nice, they are tall and slender, so they look great.
    Nice greetings, after a week of warmer and nice weather, there was a slight cooling and rain, and it's gray and sad again, but I hope that it will only be a few days and spring will start coming again.

    1. The area the photos were taken in up in the hills and it's very steep, down below there is a rather large drop to the bottom.

  3. So green and beautiful...how come those trees are so thin?

    1. It's just the type of trees they are, the variety growing in that area.

  4. The green coat of the woods is very nice

  5. El teléfono móvil es muy socorrido y siempre podemos recurrir cuando no llevamos la cámara encima.

    1. Yes the phone comes in handy at times, but I guess we should always take our camera with us but they are big and bulky.

  6. Moss and lichens show good forest health.

  7. Moss on trees is not something we see here in my dry state.

    1. That's true R, as your State is the driest in Australia.

  8. Margaret, those trees covered with mosses and lichens tell us that the air has little pollution because if there were, they would not develop.

    1. Tasmania has good clean air most of the time, we are lucky Norma.

  9. Do any of those trees provide a home or meals for local animals eg koalas?

    1. No Koalas as Tasmania doesn't have wild ones Hels. There would be many animals in that bush though. Kangaroos, wallabies, snakes, insects and of course the Tasmanian Devil.

  10. Beautiful trees covered with the moss.
    I also think the ferns are beautiful.

  11. Very interesting trees! Quokkas ? I love seeing pictures of them. But I truly enjoyed these trees!

    1. No, no Quokkas in Tasmania as far as I'm aware. They live mostly in Southern Western Australia. I like those trees, long and lean.

    1. Very thin David, a change to see. I don't know what species they are. I've search but can't find.

  13. It is a joy to see nature as it takes its course, spring is coming in here and although it hasn't rained much, at least what is needed is to see the trees sprout, the fields take on their mantle of green and everything blooms, too.
    Happy week.
    Greetings

    1. You never know as you might!
      I searched were there any dinosaurs in Tasmania and this is what I found:
      'Tasmania is the proud home to over 350 species of living dinosaur in the form of modern birds – the only dinosaurs to survive the mass extinction 65 million years ago'.

    2. Thank you for good information. I hope they can enjoy nature as their ancestors did.

  16. As beautiful as those trees are, it is the ferns that drew my eye. Those ferns are huge!

    1. They are large the ferns, and I am sure I have photos of larger ones within my blog somewhere. These ones in the photo look so healthy.

    1. It's the type of tree they are, they obviously like a damp area Melody.

    1. Thank you Denise, strange but I had never noticed these trees before having passed near there many times over the years.

    2. I think that we all do that at times, each visit we notice something else we didn't see before. Part of the joy of revisiting or re-driving by :)

    1. You are welcome Pauline. Sometimes in the town and cities we don't get to see big trees with moss and so on, we only get to see smaller trees if we are lucky.

  26. Your photos are stunning, Margaret!
    The lush greenery and delicate moss create a magical atmosphere.

    Hugs and blessings

    1. Yes Diane, always nice to view and walk among the trees when you can...yes, phones are so much improved it's rather good...saves lugging a large heavy camera or if it's forgotten and left behind at home.
