  2. Three native bees gorging on the pollen of a pig face flower (Carpobrotus Edulis) - spotted yesterday on Teewah beach! Not only are the fruits of this plant edible (albeit pretty salty!) The juice from its succulent leaves has a couple of interesting medicinal properties: it can help treat sunburn, minor cuts, insect bites, stings, and even jellyfish burns!

It also has antibacterial properties and can be used to treat minor mouth infections or a sore throat when mixed with water and used as a gargle. Are you growing pigface in your garden yet?
