Litchfield Park - Giant Termite Mounds

We nearly missed these out in our haste to visit the waterfalls, but they were pretty impressive. Skyscrapers for ants! The "gravestones" in the picture are actually magnetic termite mounds, so called because they build them pretty much running along a North/South axis to regulate the heat. They are very thin but tall and pretty wide and look exactly like gravestones. Pretty creepy. The big red one is a different type but is still a termite mound and we saw hundreds of them.
