Diverse Woodland
The reserve is a very special place when it comes to trees. I am not good at identifying Australian trees, but even I understood there was a hugely diverse canopy above me, especially as we moved around different areas within the reserve. To give an idea of the types of trees that are present, here’s an extract from the ) “An open forest or woodland community dominated by Mountain Gum (Eucalyptus dalrympleana) and Broad-leaved Peppermint (E. dives) occurs on level to gently inclined land at higher elevations in the nature reserves. Associated tree species include snow gum (E. pacuflora) and Acacia falciformis. Sheltered valleys and south-facing slopes support and open forest or woodland community dominated by Ribbon Gum (Eucalyptus viminalis). Associated canopy species may include Mountain Gum, Red Stringybark (E. macrorhyncha), Snow Gum and Applebox (E. bridgesiana).”
Amazing. Happy tree-mendous Tuesday, everyone! [Winburndale Nature Reserve, NSW]
