South East Forests Stroll

[juxtaposer]

I'm more a bush potterer than a bush walker these days, but not long back I did a very nice stroll in the South East Forest National Park in a place called Tingie's Plain, of which I'm going to attempt to post a few images. There is no track, but it is a delight to meander around this beautiful upland swamp with its natural fern and shrub gardens.

Sedge swamp and creekside flat

Natural shrub and fern gardens

These sort of swampy clears reminded me a lot of the Bindook Highlands

It was a very cold day, sleeting at times, but everywhere you look is enchanting

A big expanse of Blechnum nudum

Another swampy opening

A very gnarly tree trunk

Apart from some pig rooting the place is pristine, I didn't find any old campsites, not so much as a lolly wrapper. Then I found this pit of sorts which appeared to have a trench dug around one side of it. If not man made it might be the remains of an extinct termite mound, possibly

Recent kill, lower half of kangaroo. First night there I heard a dingo howling close by

Not every walk has to be goal orientated or another tick off a peak baggers checklist......great looking area, juxtaposer.
