Thousands of hectares of National Parks were burnt by wild bushfires in the summer of 2019-20. This left many trees in an unsafe condition - particularly those adjacent to roads and fire trails. Many damaged/unsafe trees were cut down before sections of the Parks were re-opened.
The following gallery of images was taken in the Morton National Park near Bundanoon in August 2020. The stumps are generally of quite small Banksia trees with thick bark. After rain and shortly after being cut down, some interesting textures were observed. Images by Peter Kneen - Artisan and Photography.
