今天的天氣依然不差,決定去Natural Bridge, Springbrook National Park,已納入世界遺產,只是它的入口處迥異於台灣的作法,只有簡單的標識與解說牌,若是台灣早就是豪華建築體,一度還找不到停車場,還以為搞錯地點,若不是見到一群小朋友可能還在周邊打轉,這群小學生應該是小學的戶外教學。
路況相當不錯,不難走,沿途見到不少藤蔓絞殺大樹的景況,雖然見不到啥開花物種,只拍到Pothos_longipes,但是看到奇幻的景色也是值得,走進石洞才任識水泥的沖刷力道,山路洞的岩壁是glow worms (larvae of the insect Arachnocampa flava)生育地,只是抬頭仰望卻啥都沒看到,根據資料這是是晚上觀光人潮最多的熱門景點,許多人都是來此看螢火蟲(發光蟲)。
環形步道伴隨眾多小朋友還真是熱鬧,到對岸才見到肯氏南洋杉 Araucaria cunninghamii生育地的解說牌,只是周邊高聳的大樹不易區分,只能見到解說牌旁邊幾株大樹可以確定是肯氏南洋杉 Araucaria cunninghamii,遠處的森林就不易區分,不故,至少見到生育地算是不錯。
隨後我們就轉進Bilboroughs Lookout再補拍景觀畫面,前幾天啥都沒見到,這回真的是賺到,當然順便再補拍Hydrocotyle pedicellosa、Linospadix monostachyos,到是路旁不少Plectranthus ciliatus 開花株族群。
一直對棕櫚科的Linospadix monostachyos想要好好的拍,可惜光源都不好,找不到好畫面,回台日期已近,只好隨便補幾張畫面。隨後Canyon Lookout晃晃,原以為是還要走一段道路,沒想到就在路旁,乾脆到對面的咖啡廳喝下午茶,比較實在點。
