Bunyips in the Bunya Mountains?

Sensational II Challenge

By Angie the Archivist 📚🪶Published 2 years ago • 1 min read
Bunya Pine canopy

Beware! Never stroke treacherous Stinging Tree’s hairy heart-shaped leaf!

Crisp mountain air mingles with wafting subtle scents of pungent leaf litter

Spikey Bunya Pines gaze from lofty heights, upon docile wallaroos grazing

An elusive echidna rustles; Catbirds cry; Pale-headed Rosellas chitter…

Festoon Falls tumble earthwards, begs us sip from her stream —amazing!

***

Disappointingly, the fabled Bunyip declined to make an appearance during our recent visit to the beautiful Bunya Mountains, in Oz.🥹

However, the birds were far from shy!

Handsome King Parrot
Melodious Rosella
