Albrecht von Krappa, the trees are very beautiful which is why we withstood all the rain's plip plopping onto our heads!

I love you, I love, I love you for giving me photos of trees. I was just complaining on your bird blog...What trees are these? Very lovely to see trees.

"I think that I shall never see,
a poem lovely as a tree..."

Tra La la la, Tra la la la...

It's the weekend and I AM NOT ON CALL! Tra la la la la...I love trees.

Hheheee, you are excited Ces! These trees are just for YOU! What would you name the forests?

Hints:
1&2 The first forest in top two photographs is the same tree as where you just complained on my BirdBlog;

3&4 We wash brushes for oil painting in what's squeezed from these trees;

5&6 There is rain in this forest.

7 Take your pick from Sydney Red Gum, Grey Gum, Forest Oak, White Mahogany, Grey Ironbark and Sydney Turpentine. That's not a trick hint. HEEHEE!!

You have LOTS of free time Ces!

I love the turpentines. My sister has a copse of them in her back paddock and now that all the blackberry has been cleared they just stand tall and magestic. Beautiful. (shame about the bloody leaves!)

HAHA, that would be a lot of raking Baino!

Paperbak, terpentine. What are 5 and 6? Please don't quiz me. I just spent 35 minutes with someone from the Help desk in India. I am so exhausted.

I mean turpentine. I did not know it came from trees? I need to read about that. I missed you for four hours.

5&6 is a Rainforest Ces! Hhehee, that was the trick question :) All the trees I listed are in the photographs somewhere :) Catch your breath Ces and have a coffee!

Is this a plantation or more natural?

Lovely to see them whichever.

I wondered the same after lining up the trees when photographing, Caroline! This is in fact bushland which is one of the best examples of endangered vegetation in NSW, Australia. There is only .5% of this vegetation remaining - most cleared for farming. However, it is surrounded by many gardens and has been conserved as a bush remnant by the government since 1995. The bush is an untouched corner :)

HAHA, you like green Raj? This green is safe :)

It was magical to walk through, Yrsa :)
