Mt Field National Park

Driving up to Lake Dobson. The old forest is very old.


Lake Dobson. There is a walk around the lake. Sticky was on the lookout for fish.



We didn't spot any.
These Pandanis are like a sort of palm tree. However, Lake Dobson is over 1500m above sea level, so these are extremely rare. And very slow growing. Some of these could be 1000 years old.


I love the variety in the tree trunks.

We found this little fella just catching a few zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
"Who Me?"
Another little walk took us into an area where pepper trees grow.
And this is a moving bed of rocks. There is water deep below that keeps the river of rocks slowly moving.
And this little fella was found under our drainage outlet. He is called a Pademelon.
And I photographed this little echidna just as we were leaving the park
