|
dead bumble/ wild Orange - you can still see the shrivelled fruit
|
live needlewood but its a geriatric

|
Thorny saltbush lives a very long time & is fire resistant - say no more.
|
dying leopardwood
|
Myall - maayaal - Acacia pendula

Eremophila mitchellii (budda) in flower now - culturally important
|
this belar tree in the G.R has been rung with a stone axe I think?
|
this Whitewood has been marked in a culturally significant way
|
here you can see the 3 vertical cuts close up. I dunno why they did this?
|
I used to think this belah ringbarking was a mistake ie wrong species
|
but the cuts are too small/ too random. Trying to find cultural basis
|
lightning struck leopardwood in Bottle camp
|
hundreds of spotted fuchsia in the Ginghet reserve
|
huge belah scar but who killed the tree?
|
belah ringbarking scar - who dunnit?
|
2 whitewood trunks - 1 dead 1 alive
|
live whitewood & dead budda - both have been manipulated
|
this looks like an ordinary myall tree overburdened with mistletoe
|
I think the mistletoe has been manually attached to the myall
|
looks like a 'graft' to me? Now who would do something like that - lol
|
this massive old pine in the neighbour's sand slice is dead unfortunately.
|
here is different view -same hat. THIS IS NOT A NATURAL PINE HABIT
|
here is the big scar - maybe what killed the tree?
|
leopardwood reshoot not TinT

|
beside another whitewood & possibly connected underground?
|
Myall & mistletoe Amyema quandang - parasite & freeloader
|
this mistletoe is slowly killing this myall branch
|
I call these rosewood joysticks - reshooting from the base
|
looks like stone axe cut stumps & the inside shoot can be moved around
|
here is the reshoot with remnant bark - Ive seen 2 other rosewood joysticks
|
more epi-parasitism - same old WW coolabah but different branch
|
flax lily just finished flowering
|
big old belah scarring in the dead box swamp Wilga vale
|
this old coolabah has much mistletoe - Amyema miquelli I think
|
here is a closer view of this obligate hemiparasite
|
This little rosewood is also growing in this tree - epiphyte or hemi parasite?
|
multitrunked rosewood on the dead box swamp Wila vale
|
more mistletoe
|
rosewood growing away from the shade from neighbouring tree
|
more mistletoe

Native mandarine - spiritually significant women's tree
|
this is an Ironbark I think Eucalyptus melanophloia with nest hollow

|
whitewood thru leopardwood - ring making?
|
whitewood with branch broken off in Avon
|
the tree is solid but the wood is soft - can be used as flour if desperate
|
friable internal soil which begs the question - why not guests?
|
why dont guest trees grow out of whitewoods?
|
or rosewoods for that matter? Or any old decayed tree ???
|
Are whitewood trees not accommodating hosts like eucalypts?
|
wide crotches with internal humous & self-irrigated - why no guests?
|
Were they never planted here or do they not survive?
|
this myall isnt holding water atm but I think it used to
|
Whitewood & leopardwood have a very close relationship?
|
I wonder if there is any plant matter merging going on?
|
is this intertwining a totally natural thing?
|
this old whitewood has fallen but one big root is keeping it alive
|
in this case the whitewood is enveloping the leopardwood
|
this whitewood & myall are particularly close
|
the leopardwood is encroaching on the whitewood
|
pine scar - could be axe cut scar?
|
supplejack scarring Gingie rd songline

young & old whitewoods - prob. reshoot. compare the different bark
|
supplejack spread with a little help from its friends I think
|
whitewood well making fail? unknown manipulation here
|
strange 'U' shaped whitewood - another unknown manipulation
|
If this whitewood-leopardwood combo wasnt living in this place ...
|
same with this loony leopardwood - but all in one place? No way
|
again its possible this saltbush arrived here naturally?
|
but looks like someone has TRANSPLANTED it? whats with all the clay around the roots?
|
Redgum? If so how did it get here in the Cumborah gravel pit?
|
spinifex around Cumborah
|
this is a big old mulga tree with a strange protruding growth

|
the eremophilas are out - emu bush is the most attractive
|
and so are the wattles ...
|
here is a different variety of wattle but I dont know it's name
|
this is a manipulated eumong (Acacia stenophylla)
|
quite incredible manipulations on a species Ive rarely seen before
|
it has been twisted & knotted like they did Gomeroi did with Myalls here
|
dunno if this was camp construction or the wailwun did it for fun
|
wild spinach/ warrigal greens/ Tetragonia tetragonoides

old eumong with mistletoe stubs? Wasp galls? GNR
|
I think this fallen tree is a black wattle surrounded by scrub trees
|
old needlewood - strong medicinal & the roots used as a water source/ carrier

|
large clump of flowering mistletoe
|
Allo's medicine tree (Acacia Oswaldii) & leopardwood flowering

opposite views of this remarkable manipulation - what were they thinking?
|
I dunno the name of this cute little bush living around the ridges
|
silver leaved Ironbark in bud - good for xmas wreaths?
|
stunted needlewood I think or possibly Punty bush?
|
Turkey bush/ Eremophila deserti/ burrgulbiyan is uncommon here
|
this brigalow is actually a ringtree! The old clever people did this
|
this belah tree is crazy too. Looks manipulated to me
|
the upper branches are having a party & there are scars all around the trunk
|
the whitewood/ Atalaya hemiglauca/ birraa are flowering atm
|
the winged seedpods are striking. Whitewoods are wind dispersed
|
the Darling lillies are out too - the bulbs contain plenty of carbs
|
this pine looks suss but it's broken trunk may have caused excessive branch growth
|
this big coolabah has grown around the old currant bush

this is a belah scar with axtrax on wailwun country

|
rosewood scar - cultural for sure
|
interspecies hug - box & wilga I think - wailwun

It may be mistletoe - interesting that its found along 2 songlines?
|
Indigenous cover crops - Nardoo + Darling lillies
|
old Narrow leaf bumble I think - Capparis loranthifolia

|
The leaves are much wider than the Black wattle here
|
but, the bark on the trunk is the same. BFC Ginghet camp
|
the branches of this Eurah at the BBB bridge camp have been manipulated
|
from these 2 views you can see how deliberately tangled they are
|
more Marra riverbank Eurah - the dead one has an axe cut scar
|
this dead Eurah not far away is hosting a very old Thorny saltbush
|
Whether this is a cultural planting I dunno but the host has been manipulated

flowering Eumong - Acacia stenophylla
|
this is often called Cumbungi or bullrush from the Typha species
|
scarred supplejack - probably killed it
|
old dead Belah tree with coolamons on - Marra ck
|
old manipulated rosewood off BBB rd
|
pine or belah impact scar
|
I think this is an old wilga pointer but could just be branch dieback?
|
Ive never seen anything like these leopardwood plugs before?
|
these adjacent rosewood & leopardwood trees are attached?
|
Joined together for stability or experimentation?
|
Carinda rd rosewood manipulations - wailwun women's place

|
possibly manipulated Pine with a branch 360 & long scar - also near waterhole
|
I think this is a temporary shelter frame made from eumong & coolabah
|
the eumong has been twisted into position between the coolabah trunks
|
I dont know if this is the root kernel of the coolabah or a guest?
|
if its a dead guest, what species is it? The mysteries of the Ginghet
|
Eumong V mistletoe with the tree winning in this case.
|
Eumong/ river cooba/Acacia stenophylla scarring
|
big old silver leaf ironbark on a hill in the ridges

2 views of supplejack & bumble combo - not natural no way
|
neither is this nearby box/ supplejack arrangement ..GG

|
coolabah apple (Angophora floribunda) at home in the ridges
|
the mighty black box (Eucalyptus largiflorens) at home along the Ginghet
|
Eucalyptus melanophloia - stone axtrax 2 views
|
I think this old whitewood is a twister
|
currant bush are the preferred breeding place for caper butterflies

this budda & supplejack have been battling it out for generations
|
Eumong (Acacia stenophylla) provides shelter & flour from ground seeds
|
dichondra at Number one - the camp carpet of choice whatever the elevation/ rainfall

I call these kissing trees - leopardwood & rosewood lock 'lips'
