Death at the front door.
Death at the front door.

Australia is usually a pretty harsh land, if it’s not flooding, it’s in years of severe drought and terrible bushfires as we have currently occurring across many parts of our country. Life and death, death and life. The green paddock in the rear belies the drought ridden state of this land, but the tree doesn’t. Australian trees have been bred tough to cope with the harsh environment, they live without much water and mostly bounce back after bushfires. But all life is finite and some trees will just grow old, others will find themselves in a state where, despite the inbuilt toughness provided by nature, things just get too harsh.

I don’t know why this one died, but, sitting at the entrance to a property near Grenfell in New South Wales, it is a harsh reminder of life in the Australian country. And it may have had an offspring before the end came!
