These twisted trees at mimosa rocks on the Yuin coastline are some of my favourite trees, the colour of their bark…their twisted forms. I lie on them and look out at the sea.
On Bunurong country where they have been planted, they hybridise with our local Manna gums, a significant tree for the Bunurong. The lerps on their leaves also encourage the noisy miner to move in and take up new territory, which impacts on local birds. These birds are extremely aggressive even attacking large birds like ravens and ibis.
On Yuin country it’s my favourite tree.
On Bunurong country I work to have it removed.
Same tree different place.
