All the distant hills & valleys are brown with here & there green dots [[strikethrough]] of [[/strikethrough]] and patches - A fox trots out on [[strikethrough]] the [[/strikethrough]] one quite bare, [[strikethrough]] pro [[/strikethrough]] sulphury-brown projecting ridges of the bluff & disappears again. A roseate finch flies overhead - A bee hums by- Beyond the sulphury brown ridge a mass of scoria forms the top of the bluffs brick- red in color. The lichens on the curious pinnacle rock beyond are bright yellow-brown - & a cap of brown-green [[underlined]] Elymus [[/underlined]] rests on it like a thatched roof.
