Baby brush tail tucked up in a green blanket. Human hand beside it for scale . Itβs itty bitty
A hand with medium to large hail stones already quite melty
More biggish hails stones. Also a bit melted .
Baby possum down the chimney and a pretty wild hailstorm. Interesting day. The hail is a good 10 mins into melting as I wasnβt home when it hit.

Intranasal vaccine stops infection at the source Clinical By Chloe Hava -September 15, 2025 Coronavirus Covid-19 Administered to the nasal mucosa, a spike-based formulation triggers rapid local defences that clear the COVID-19 virus where it enters.
Intranasal vaccine stops infection at the source.
In 2022, Australian researchers secured nearly $1M in grants to develop an intranasal COVID vaccine.
New findings show it blocks the virus in the nose, stopping it from spreading in the body and preventing transmission to others.

The Environment Minister has approved a coal mine extension overnight β the first of the new Parliament.
This is a decision that will lock Australia into providing coal for decades, and put threatened wildlife at risk.
This is not climate action. This is a climate crime.

Itβs not about us ceasing to be US allies, itβs about accepting that the US has ceased to be allies with anyone.
The US has abandoned any normal international relationships, we need to adjust to this reality.
And cancel AUKUS.

It's a good day to stay indoors out of that terrible weather that is raging outside.
So it might be a good day for some feed cleansing.
Here's an unusual view of a wedge-tailed eagle that I saw up near Woomera some time back. Look at those talons!
What a fantastic photo. You get such brilliant pics
