Gum Trees

Our Gum Trees, (Eucalypts) come in an amazing variety

From the beautiful to the bizarre, like this growth that has been made to
resemble a face with a little white paint.

Two Ghost Gums of central Australia located near Alice Springs.

Scribbly Gums, an East coastal variety, under the outer bark a
small caterpillar leaves these patterns as he feeds.

Imagine the trauma's this tree must have faced to become the
gnarled specimen it has grown into.

Never waste an opportunity is a maxim of Australia, and clearly
the locals around Mansfield, a small Victorian town, did not.
