First Koel has arrived in the Submarine town! #Holbrook #cuckoos #koelwatch #WildOz #birds

Taken me awhile to finally get this shot #plovertown #crapbirdphoto

First a Silvereye tree, them a pardalote tree...#localnature

We are having (hopefully) false Spring weather in S NSW right now, confirmed by first #swoopingmagpie of the year this morning #localnature #wildoz

Bluesky keeps logging me out but today Im back in..thrilled to see these Greycrowned babblers in the Holbrook Common. Four years ago did playback here and only 2 turned up 😪. Today - 6 😁. #localnature #naturefix #WildOz #birds

#sky, its all about the sky this morning

Kinda representing where we are at - view through on of the #Wiradjuri #ringtrees in Holbrook - #humandetritis

For a minute I was transported back to #blacksummer2020 but this morning its just a sunrise in the fog #triggering #localnature #naturefix

Hoverfly in a flowering Daphne Heath

In whats been a record dry and sparse flowering in the southern NSW South West Slopes, the music of insects buzzing around this Daphne Heath is most welcome. Winter flowering epacrids are completely absent from our restoration because we cant propagate them 🤔.

Wattles budding up #naturefix #localnature

I think alot about how bird imagery is everywhere in our culture - coffee cups, teatowels, ornaments - even in the cemetary on my morning walk. I guess Bridlife help translate into conservation care more widely but wish for more #loveakingparrot #loveabluewren

Sun after the storms, pool closed for all except the #williewagtail

#bigoldtree always the best thing #TenMileCreek

#oldwood #naturefix #localnature

Cemetaries are some of the only places left with intact #grassywoodland ground layers. This is remnant Flax Lilly (Dianella sp.) at #holbrook cemetary #localnature #naturefix

dry Seasonal herbaceous wetland dry in a drainage ditch

Little spark of joy at a fav remnant seasonal herbaceous #wetland on the morning walk. Drainage ditch on a road now - once was a patch on the floodplain #shiftingbaselines

Rakali looking at the camera

Best thing today happened yesterday with @judykirk.bsky.social - very curious #Rakali #BillabongCk #UpperBillabong

Life in #GrassyWoodlands - some Wild Irishman (Acacia paradoxa) that was direct seeded in a restoration site #naturefix #localnature

Drop of water on a fence wire reflecting the woodlands

Reflections of the woodland #naturefix

Grey crowned babbler nests in a Yellow Box

Best thing today- a family group of 6 Grey-crowned babblers in #HolbrookCommon. Last time we did call playback in here only 1 turned up - thought all was lost. Some nests too 😁🥳

Water droplets making rings in the water

Water back in the creek #TenMileck #UpperBillabong #naturefix #localwilds

Paddock trees at Sunrise

Paddock trees at sunrise def the best thing I'll see today I suspect - Chroma Hills or Morgans Ridge #Holbrook #naturefix

Reflection of canopy in a puddle

Puddle reflections #grassywoodlands #naturefix

Noisy miners in the top of a dead tree

Morning entourage of Noisy Miners - unfortunately dominate alot of the grassy woodland TSR's locally #grassywoodlands #naturefix #birds #wildoz

Beauty like a bottle of truckie piss glinting in the morning light. On a bike you sure see some poetic piss-bottle moments #anthropocene

Phragmites in the creek

Autumn light is always beautiful but good to see green Phragmites and reflections in water in the creek after a long dry spell.

Sunrise with trees and Mt Narra Narra
