— Summer in the scrub (2) —
Trees moult in the heat.
They shed bark …
… and needles:
Golden sheoak needles
They bare their skin.
It’s a stripped, naked kind of beauty.
Back in the scrub again
(tales from the birdgirl)
twenty-one words 
The trees are so attractive with the exfoliating bark and twisted trunks. You could do a whole series just on this one tree!
I am endlessly fascinated by trees. There will be more posts coming up!
Can’t resist those naked gums!
Too right!
