Eucalyptus Trees


Many different species of Eucalyptus trees grow in Australia. The tree I am leaning on is called a "Scribbly Gum". If you enlarge the picture you can see the zig zag pattern by my hand. (that is created by a worm in search of the sap). We're not sure what the strange formation is below my hand.

  1. I think it's a fissure in the tree bark that allows more Carbon dioxide to be absorbed. the name of it is hard to reach in my brain. starts with an "L". haha
    looks like fun!
