Daintree Rainforest Australia ポストカード

The Daintree is estimated to be 180 million years old, making it the oldest continuously surviving tropical rainforest in the world. Located in North Queensland, it is a place where the rainforest meets the reef, housing species that have remained virtually unchanged for millennia. Among its most striking inhabitants is the Southern Cassowary, a large, flightless bird with a brilliant blue neck and a prehistoric-looking casque. The juxtaposition of its vivid colors against the ancient green ferns creates a visual experience unlike any other.
