I've been meaning to post to the hashtag for a while...I've also noticed it's gained traction back on the as well! :birdsite:

Here's a I found in outside a church, courtesy of Google Maps since I accidentally deleted my own photo. 🤣

Google Maps Streetview screenshot of a tree with a thick trunk outside an old stone church. The branches cover the overcast sky. The tree is within a walled soil bed next to a wooden bench and a grass area. Two lampposts are to its left.

Yesterday I found some absolutely STUNNING trees for at , , !

Photo of a thick-trunked tree to the right of the image with its branches overshadowing the skyline of Perth, Western Australia in the background. To the left is a barrier and more open grasslands. It is a clear mid-morning.
Photo of a boab tree with a lot of holes in it surrounded by barriers at King's Park, Western Australia. Here's a transcript of a nearby sign for more context: "The wounds on the Boab trunk are from tissue damage that occurred during its journey to King's Park that lead to decay. "Good news! The tree's natural healing processes are at work, assisted by King's Park's tree experts. "Rotting bark has been removed so that new healthy wood can grow and seal off the decay. Eventually the wood will be completely healed."

With it being 37°C (98.6°F) in right now, I’d like to once again say that is WAY too and unrealistically marketed in the media as a happy extroverted paradise. 😓

I am NOT going to the beach half-naked surrounded by sweaty strangers getting bitten by mosquitoes and getting heat stroke like the media says I should, I’m staying in my little fan-powered air-conditioned room until comes back, thank you very much! 😤

Here's 2 more from for this week's and their history among the people of .

1. Tuarts, or "scar trees" for bark removed for tools and shelter.

2. Marri, or "medicine trees" for their antiseptic qualities.

Photo of a Tuart trunk, also known as the "Scar Tree", taking the right-half of the photo with more tuart trees and lush light green foliage in the background to its left. The ground has small shrubs, wood chips, and fallen leaves and twigs. This Tuart tree's trunk has a notably large chunk of bark removed, present as a darkened, more smoother area of the tree.
Photo of a sign along the Boodja Gnarning Walk reading: "Scar Tree. "Tuart (Eucalyptus gomphocephala). "The Tuart is a culturally significant tree. Noongar men used their stone axe tools to carve out sections of the Tuart to make tools and implements such as throwing sticks, Woondi (shields), dowaks (clubs) and coolamons (dishes). "Local, deceased, male elders were buried at the base of the Tuart trees which grow only along the Swan Coastal Plains." To the right is an illustration of the trunk of a tuart tree with bark removed, reading "Look for the removed bark on the side of this 'Scar Tree', which may have been used for shelter."
Photo of the Marri tree, also known as the Medicine Tree, to the right of a long bridge, known as Lotterywest Federation Walkway, stretching leftwards through bushland towards the city of Perth, Western Australia in the left background. The weather is clear.
Photo of a sign in front of the aforementioned Marri tree reading: "Medicine Tree. "Marri. "Marri trees played a significant role in Noongar culture. The red gum, mayat, oozing from the tree contains tannin which has antiseptic qualities. "Mayat was powdered and sprinkled onto open wounds to prevent bleeding, or added to water for a mouthwash or disinfectant. When mayat was mixed with clay and water it was used as a traditional medicinal drunk for dysentry. "Large quantities of mayat were used to tan kangaroo skins, which were made into cloaks (bookra) or carry bags." Along the sign are indigenous artworks of kangaroos, a handprint, and marri tree leaves and trunks.

Just found a on Maps StreetView 😂😍

Screenshot of a quokka on Google Maps Streetview on Thomson Bay Settlement, Rottnest Island, Western Australia. A lot of trees with thick trunks to the right provide a lot of shade along a concrete path leading to houses in the background, which the quokka is crossing leftwards on, with old stone houses coloured beige to the left. Two elderly people with blurred-out faces are also present.
Closer photo of the aforementioned quokka outside that house's brown gate and looking back up at the Google Maps StreetView van. A huge arrow generated by Google Maps is pointing back up the path.

I decided to check out the local outdoor art exhibition, the , by -based : these huge wooden sculptures found all around () and they are absolutely stunning!!

I took some more photos along my journey that I'll post in the comments 🧵👀

Photo of the first giant, Santi Ikto. It is made of rectangular wooden planks for the head, limbs, hands and feet, and smaller wooden planks of varying tones of brown for the body. Santi Ikto is bald and has large sticks for a beard. It has its hands raised towards the ocean with legs crossed. The background is bushy and sandy dunes with an almost-clear blue sky, save for thin clouds on the horizon.
Photo of the fourth giant, Little Lui. Same as before, wooden tiles for hands and limbs, thicker tiles for the body. Bush land in the background. This one is slightly chubbier and is sitting upright with its feet in front of it, and it's left hand holding a fallen tree uprooted from the ground. It is smiling and has very shaggy hair made of a lot of sticks.
Photo of the third giant, Vivi Cirklestone, before it was burnt by arsonists. There are wooden panels on its hands and arms, and thicker, smaller wooden planks of varying shades of brown for its body, as are all the giants. This one is bald also. It has its right claw in the ground digging for something, is resting its head in its left arm, and is crouched towards the ground. As Vivi Cirklestone's name implies, it is surrounded by a circle of stones. There are thin eucalyptus trees in the background.
Photo of the sixth, hidden giant, Jyttes Hytte, which is almost identical to Vivi Cirklestone but sitting upright and wrapping both its arms and legs around a tree. It smiles and there's more bush land in the background.
