Trip to Flinders Ranges--Day 2 Orroroo to Hawker and trip to Blinman

On day 2 of our Flinders Ranges excursion we travelled on to Hawker,booked into the Hawker Hotel early and then did a day trip to Blinman, further North and then got back in time for our evening meal.
A highlight was photographing and seeing the famous Cazneaux tree.
I last photographed this tree in 1992.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cazneaux_Tree  and the amazing view form Huck"s Lookout just north of Wilpena Pound.
Here are some pics.
The terrain was very dry but there was rain while we were there and in September hopefully will be the usual carpets of wildflowers.
Old Butter Factory Orroroo.
Not sure what this animal was. Lethal looking teeth.

Not the Cazneaux tree but almost it's twin.
