There are other Boab trees further up north, interesting tree. Well I expect there are not many who do visit that church so I'm sure you would be most welcome. It was locked so couldn't take photos inside.
Los molinos de viento, que yo he fotografiado en España, son muy diferentes a este. Son los molinos que describe Miguel de Cervantes en su obra D. Quijote de la Mancha.
El tronco de este árbol que parece en tu imagen, me recuerda el de un árbol que vi en la ciudad de Cádiz, aunque lo más probable que no fuera el mismo, pero la forma que tiene es muy parecida.
All our windmills are the same as in my photo, some are larger, some smaller. Interesting those you have photographed, will look it up to see the difference. I'm sure your trees similar would be in the same family :)
Many boabs further up north EC, rather large ones. Occasionally we have found Boabs along our travels but haven't seen them in the east, they could be there though.
It is a beauty that windmill, have seen larger much further inland though. Always nice to the building in each town as they do vary somewhat expect the pubs are mostly the same.
Windmills come in many forms, but nothing is as visually appealing as a traditional Dutch windmill which always seems to be part of the landscape and not imposed on it.
dear Margaret this is splendid town i liked the name windmills too thank you for sharing image of this wonderful tree wow look at this vase like beautiful trunk :))) never saw such think before blessings to you and family my friend!

Interesting Boab tree, it resembles a vase.
ReplyDeleteIt is does have a shape like a vase, they are interesting to read about those trees.

Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI always associate the boab tree with inland Australia, with hotter and dryer places. How nice to learn I am wrong (again).

DeleteThe church and tree is my favourite photos
ReplyDeleteIt looks a nice church Gosia a little different to others.
DeleteA very impressive Boab and a very large windmill.
ReplyDeleteIt is big windmill, have seen larger further inland.
DeleteSuch lovely photos
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo-Anne.
DeleteMuy bella serie de imagenes, amiga
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteGood to see more of Gilgandra.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rosie.
DeleteThat is a very big windmill--- It's getting harder to find them here. I love the tree! And as always, I'm charmed by the local architecture.

You visit a lot of beautiful places, it is always such a joy to see that on your photos! Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks Natalia.
DeleteBoab tree is new to me. I like those big windmills. Another lovely place that you have visited. Have a happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy.
Delete:)
ReplyDeleteWe don't have Boab trees here but I have seen really large ones in South Africa, and in Sri Lanka too.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly know what I'm talking about then Rosemary, they are very large up in Northern Australia too.
DeleteWindmills come in many forms, but nothing is as visually appealing as a traditional Dutch windmill which always seems to be part of the landscape and not imposed on it.
ReplyDeleteHave seen photos of those in the Netherlands, and they do look so different than ours.
DeleteI particularly like your photographs of the Boab tree.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thanks Jan.
DeleteEl árbol es mi favorito. Besos Margaret.
ReplyDeleteThat tree is something different.
DeleteLove the architecture in country towns.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice, different from the cities.
DeleteClásico paisaje del viejo oeste. ¡Me gusta!
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo, Margaret.
That's for sure Jordi.
DeleteThe boab tree with its bottle shaped trunk - looks very impressive!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is different type of tree.
DeleteThere are lots of boab/bottle trees up around the Glenden area.
ReplyDeleteThose little country towns have a charm unique to them. :)
They sure do those towns.
DeleteDidn't know that about Glenden but expect we haven't been there, could be wrong.
dear Margaret this is splendid town
ReplyDeletei liked the name windmills too
thank you for sharing image of this wonderful tree
wow look at this vase like beautiful trunk :)))
never saw such think before
blessings to you and family my friend!
I’ve never seen an old metal windmill that large! Seems that it would pump a lot of water. The boab tree looks like it will hold a lot of water.
