Thankyou. That's exciting!

Is this a Barking Owl calling please?

Thankyou

Any #spider experts here?
Located in Batlow NSW and the discussion is focusing on it being a snowy mountains funnel web.

I've recently been trialling some thermal binoculars to help with creature tracking. Pretty impressed so far, picking up lots of things that are often tough to get eye shine out of, like this chuditch (western quoll) #WildOz

Thoughts on what causes the column of steam fog?

Thanks. New pollinator language for me 😁

Ok. Thanks heaps. The video didn't look so clear on here but the bee was very busy

Check the blue banded bee proboscis at the start of the video. @manusaunders.bsky.social is the bee pollinating the flowers at that rapid rate or just checking them out. They are flowering purple fringe lily in my wildflower orchard. Hopefully collect seed.

Same as the dingos in Australia

Grumps

We're 🙄

Where all here on Bluesky for this right.

A suggestion is also libraries. I know the Batlow & Tumbarumba library has activities for after school so maybe hit up Snowy Valleys Council. The Batlow library recently had a Greater Glider display.

This is my local road. Doesn't look like much. Sliver of Eucs recovering from 2019/20 bushfire.
Last week an ANU ecologist spotted 2 young Greater Gliders. Clinging on to what remains of their ideal habitat. And bummer, new #Transgrid powerlines will be less than 1 km away. #threatenedspecies

Upstream of Paddy's River Waterfall near Tumbarumba yesterday with our local growers group. Select grazing only during winter means come spring time native plants like the potato orchid pop up. Yes, Platypus and rakali in the stream as well. Garlic will be harvested this week by the Golgini family.

Seen any large scale eucalypt flowering events? Help create maps that show the distribution of eucalypt flowering. Highly beneficial to support the conservation management of several threatened nectarivorous species.

Platypus poop!
Platypuses can eat more than 400 worms a day (as well as a bunch of crayfish and insect larvae), so it's no surprise their poop is really greasy.

If anyone was in doubt how quick Ox- Eye Daisy can spread this a #TSR up the road from farm. Been visiting it for years. In about 5 years this pretty but invasive weed has swamped the area. It's only going to get worse with #Humelink powerline instalment traffic in the area.

The Adaminaby Weeping Snow Gum (Eucalyptus lacrimans) is flowering again. Over the next few months a whole lot of different pollinators will be calling by to visit ~ 100 plants established.

Bluesky arrival....
