Sometimes, beauty is viewed best from the air… Spent Sunday driving out west over the Blue Mountains to Mudgee in the Central Tablelands, within the Capertee Valley. Also, had the drone (DJI AIR3) with me!!
Some stunning sites to see from above!!
The heritage-listed Mudgee Railway Station was constructed back in the 1880s, as a gateway to the town.
However, it hasn’t welcomed passenger trains in nearly 40 years and the line was closed in 2004.
I believe these are Chrysocephalum apiculatum. Found growing wild along a fire trail in the Capertee Valley. It was only after I saw the photo on the PC that I noticed the little crab spider lurking within the flowers!
