Grosvenor Trail rebirth after fire : January 22 2025

in Actifit4 months ago

Weird weather day. Forecast is for 35C and a storm later. Started out cloud with temperature edging over 22C. Checked the forecast and looked out the window. Got out early - took the umbrella as it started to rain - and the car. Could not remember where my boots were - chose a track not likely to have leeches

Pine-leafed geebung on Grosvenor fire trail, Wahroonga

It is the season of the scribbly gum lost its bark

NSW coral heath flower- white form

Surprised to find patersonia iris still flowering - did see a few

Next test - petals seem long and more pointy

Conesticks flower - still a few going

Mushrooms emerging - a bit of rain and up they come

Pink form of NSW coral heath flower - petals are shorter

Lambertia formosa

Grey spider grevillea

Peach-flowered tea tree

More scribbly gum delight

Spider time - orb weaver spider

Walk back along the section reduced by hazard reduction burn this season - see the new growth at ground level

New growth half way up the burnt tree

Survivor popped up after the fire - milkwort

New growth from ground level - tree above is completely burnt

Banksia serratum flower above head height - tree is burned down below

A little closer. Next photo shows the extremes

Track is on the right - green. Burned bit is on the left = burned brown. What I do know about trees is the dead part will die back and the risk is to the whole tree. For now native says - live on

Walk done - had hoped to find midge orchids. They were here this time last year - not today. Only got a few seeded orchids but there was plenty to enjoy

Did get a lot of steps in doing that. Walked also to shops to get a few things - that got steps over 10k

As for forecast - the cloud did go away and it did get to 35C - sure pleased I walked early

Dinner: a cheesy version of pasta Alfredo - yum

Investing action: Covered calls time

Banksia serratum flower is very beautiful and strange, it blooms on a tall tree. Amazing Photography. You have reached 10 k goals, congratulations
