    Default A couple of cast sheoak pods and a snake skin

    The snake skin is shed from a western or peninsula brown on a sierra vista, didn't actually get to meet him he just dropped the skin off and carried on his merry way. The pod castings are on Sedona kits from Timberbits. The fruits came from a Allocasuarina verticillata we planted near the Point Lowly lighthouse about 10 years ago on national tree day. I collected some more today along with some small coastal tea tree fruits so will get the dehydrator fired up tonight ready for more casting. Cheers, Des
