Wireless Hill - western slope

This is a view facing up the northern slope of Wireless Hill on 27 March 2008. 24 hours earlier the hill had been ablaze from a bushfire lit by a firebug. Most of these larger plants will recover over winter. The undergrowth recovery will be dependent on seeds and rhyzomes in the scorched earth.

For more photos of the fire, water bomber helicopters and the scorched aftermath 24 hours later see two photo essay folders at Paul R. Weaver's Picasa site.

For more written observations go to his Fremantlebiz blog for 27 March 2008 and 28 March 2008.
