    Hebes, beech saplings, monkey scrub I presume. He was only a couple kms from bush line. Would definitely darken up over the next few weeks once they start wallowing, ripping up ground and marking trees properly.

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.
