Normanby Boulderfields

The Boulderfields comprise blocky granite boulders from which the interstitial soil has been mostly eroded away.
The boulders are black due to encrusting algae and lichen.

An inhospitable looking terrain. It is a wonder that trees can get a foothold. Super photo.

I'm always amazed at how little soil trees need to get started among rocks!

interesting find and capture.

interesting that would happen, as one would think the roots of the shrubs would bind and pack the soil..

Great shot. Now I see how they got their name!
