Gubara Stretch 02

I, however, still only see the similarities. Perhaps as I become more expectant of change I will start to see the plants and animals which only exist in these remote pockets, but for now I need to see the similarities, otherwise the difference are like a long distant overgrown picture. The similarities allow me to focus on some of the small details which provide a more complex experience and exposes the relationships that punctuate my walk. It makes me feel part of the connection with land which obviously has resisted successfully for 2,000 million years attempts at colonisation by my two legged colleagues.
