My favourite red grass
I have talked about it on the internet before. It brings me lots of joy.
I came across some while I was photographing a church. It grows in our street, I haven't seen any in other parts of Victoria.
For ages now, well a month or two, I have been looking at a red native grass, that grows at least in a 50 mile radius of here. There is one piece in our nature strip. It grows by the roadside, and during the drought made a stunning display.
Yesterday (May 24, 2007) I drove through bush areas and saw Crimson Rosellas I think, feeding on it by the side of the road. It was a sight I haven't seen before, and special I think. Not only do I love the grass, now in autumn you can see birds on it feeding.

The red grass grows by the side of the road, probably because the paddocks/fields have cultivated grasses that the farmers prefer for the cows.
