While I was in Australia I was really struck by how different the trees and plants looked. This banksia nut is probably nothing special to australians. Like chestnuts, or acorns are nothing really special to europeans. Just something that you always see lying on the ground during a certain time of the year, or something that you used to make spiderwebs with.
But! I've heard that there is an australian childrens book that has main characters that look like nuts and berries and stuf. The main characters are two cute honkey nuts (from the karri trees) and the bad guy is figured on the banksia nut!
Poor banksia nut, I don't think it looks like an evil banksia man...
