Those mangroves again!



Yesterday when I drove past, not only was the sun out, and the Great Dividing Range visible in the background, the mangroves were up to their knees in the water - high tide. That tree next to them is a casuarina. The name casuarina is derived from the Malay “Kasuari” or “Cassowary” which refers to the likeness of the plant's thin drooping stems and leaves to the feathers of the bird.
