Casuarina dig

Post by lukeaaustin »

Hey everyone,
It's been a rainy old day up here in Forster, I managed to get out this morning for a bit of a tree hunt and found some nice material. I stumbled across an old road that had casuarina growing on top of it that had been constantly 'pruned' by the council. I didn't even need to dig, just dug my fingers under the root mat and pulled them up. I'll get some better pics once the rain buggers off!ImageImage
