'Just before dawn, the bush is still and silent. On the bank of a clear stream, an old gum tree stands tall and wide . . .'
Set around an old gum tree, 'Bush Secrets' reveals the many creatures that rely on the old eucalypt for their food, shelter, and as a place to raise their young. The cycle of life and death in nature is narrated in a lively and informative way.
'Bush Secrets' sheds light on some of the many mysteries of the bush - who feeds off whom; who is afraid of whom; which animals come out at night; and which come out during the day. Fascinating and intricate relationships between the flora and fauna surrounding the gum tree are revealed, and Tricia Oktober once again captures the diversity and magic of the Australian landscape.
