Cherry tomatoes on a vine

#DailyGlimmer. It’s a nice time of year. Harvesting for now, and cold winter nights when some flavour punch in a veggie stew will lift spirits ☺️

A hand size matchstick grasshopper, that looks very much like its name

#DailyGlimmer Very elaborate stick landed on our wall. Can’t say it’s a good disguise considering the surface, but then again maybe sticks are known to inedible by local birds 🥸

Once choked in weeds, locals celebrate 'mud coming back' to wetland An invasive weed planted decades ago quickly spread across Tasmania's north-west, choking mudflats and wildlife habitat. Now, those involved in a long-running effort to wipe it out are seeing real res...

Bags and drink bottles left on a seat

#dailyglimmer. Out walking this morning, came across a stream of people who had just begun a fun run. Further along was this. No one around, but these runner’s items would still be there when the fun run completed ☺️ #smalltown

A bowl of passion fruit

#Dailyglimmer. The mother load has begun! Everyone of these babies has been hand pollinated- sweet!

#DailyGlimmer 👇🏽This thread and full YouTube vid too

A blurry pic of two pademelons under shrubbery

#DailyGlimmer - super hard to capture but nestled deep in our garden is a pademelon mum and a very large, way past pouch bub, cuddled up together 🥹. Our garden mob are very successful, maybe due to this extended maternal care. I’ve seen it multiple times now, possibly passed on thru generations ?

A container of huge cherries

#DailyGlimmer Check out the size of these “ordinary” cherries from my local IGA. And these would have been rejected for the OS market . Sorry but not sorry rest of Australia. 🤷🏻‍♀️
But I better get moving, I’m behind on my winter freezing schedule.
