A bit different... by robz

A bit different...

A native wattle that's not very yellow and not in a spike or clump of flower heads.....
I'd still recognize it for what it is! It's quite a distinctive shape!

It does look pale doesn't it. Must have stayed out of the sun.

An unusual perspective that frames the wattle nicely.

@bluemoon Hi Paula - the wattle is our national flower. I even know a tongue in cheek verse about it -

Behold the wattle,
the symbol of our land
you can put it in a bottle,
or hold it in your hand.

There are so many different species that it's virtually impossible to keep up with them. They all have fluffy flowers with lots of stamens, the flowers are often in heads or along a central stalk, are usually some shade of yellow, and attract a lot of insects and birds. Cheers Rob :)
