Fine grassy flats accompanied the creek on its left, whilst a cypress-pine forest grew on its right bank.

They live probably upon the seeds of the cypress-pine; the female answers the loud call of the male, but in a more subdued voice.

Cypress-pine thickets alternated with scrubby stringy-bark forest, acacia and tea-tree thickets, and with broad tea-tree forest.

On the higher elevations, the Cypress-pine thickets proved even worse than the scrub.

It was wooded with broad-leaved box, broad-leaved ironbark, Moreton Bay ash, bloodwood and cypress pine.
