The playing light on the dry creek beds of Fowlers Gap was a focus while I painted en plein air, listening to the birds under the dappled light. On Homestead Creek and Fowlers Creek the large Eucalyptus camaldulensis trees that grow on the banks provide homes and food for wildlife including over 100 bird species like the Apostlebird, Zebra Finch, and various honeyeaters.
