Check out this regent parrot who can barely fit in her own nest - this huge old red gum has a 5cm wide slit that’s been a nest for a couple years now. squeeze == safe

Great news

That’s the one - thanks - I’ll look it up 🙂. It’s really different in taste to a sugar sweetened sponge.

Thank you 🙂

Don’t suppose there’s a lamington recipe with a honey sweetened sponge in the box? I once had a vintage recipe for this and it was the best ever.

Do you know that chickens have at least 100 ‘words’ 🙂?

Surely the people who would label you a weirdo (those not into kayaking/birding) are in fact the weirdos 🙂?

Smart! A Raven doing Raven things.

I would imagine that would be very difficult for Lore Keepers.

The article mentions two submerged sites in Australia and I think that submerged sites have also been mapped in Victoria.

Yes - fortunately I didn’t realise how scary until I was out of the ‘taxi’.

I made it to the airport. But there is clearly an issue.

I ordered a taxi to the airport. I received a message saying my taxi had arrived. On the way to the airport (in the taxi) I received a call. From the booked taxi driver. Wondering where I was.

I’m sure this incident did not help the victim’s mental ill-health.

I suppose recognition of special places could potentially be a good thing in some circumstances. Not sure that it’s helped the GBR.

Lol. Of course.
