The upper reaches of most Tasmanian rivers take on a tea-colour from tannin in the water. This is because they are fed by mountain streams that flow through alpine heathlands dominated by button-grass Gymnoschoenus sphaerocephalus, a tussock grass common in the central highlands and other mountain regions of the state. |
