Hawthorn

On our way to Westbury here in Tasmania the other day the Hawthorn was out and looking pretty.
We took  a road that we don't drive on often so the photos are of the countryside in the mid north west of the Island.
Cows grazing, white Hawthorn and pink growing in the paddocks and along part of the side of the road. Some places or areas have Hawthorn Hedges but not in this area.
Hedges were almost unknown in 1810 but from 1820 onwards the settlers were planting hedges as fences.
