Trees along the Way.

We set off for a drive last weekend not sure which direction we should go, but our noses led the way inland see map below of the route we took.  These photos I took along the way.  The bottom photo should be at the top, the top photo at the bottom 😉

The 'man fern' below is commonly referred to as Dicksonia antartica, the soft tree fern an iconic, ancient species native to the cool, damp rainforests and wet eucalypt forests of eastern Australia and Tasmania.












Right side of the map is from Launceston and back to Launceston, Home!

    Australia seems to have massive open space. All the way no housing?

    It's always so good to admire and capture nature through photos.
    How magnificent are the soft tree ferns.
    I really like the smell of eucalyptus.
    Beautiful photos!

    Such wild beauty. I truly felt as though I was watching a documentary. It must have been a fantastic experience to move through such a landscape. I don't know about you, but when I'm surrounded by nature on this scale, I feel small and perhaps that's something we as humans need to feel from time to time. Beautiful photographs. Thank you for taking us along with you on the journey.

    Oh look at those lovely mailboxes? I enjoyed seeing them, and all your tree photos. Love trees, and ferns that matter. Thanks Margaret! Great map too :)

    A nice drive with fine weather. While I've not bushwalked in your state, I think your tree ferns might be more spectacular than our own.

    LOVE "Mail Box Row" and those ferns too, I had some in the front yard of the first house we built, after we sold, the new owner ripped out the entire yard.
