This mornings walk was interrupted by a pod of dolphins at Rose Bay! I’ve never seen dolphins this far into the harbour, and it was such a treat!

They happily frolicked around to the delight of everyone (except the commuters late for work on the ferry that couldn’t leave the wharf til they did 🤭🐬)

I left the other place months ago and the glorious @drpolarbird.bsky.social coaxed me back 🐧

We must do that coffee and swim/snorkel sometime!!

'It's always with you': The day terror came to the heart of Sydney It is 10 years today since a lone-wolf gunman walked into the Lindt Cafe and took 18 people hostage, demanding politicians declare Australia was under attack from Islamic State.

As think of all those impacted by the Lindt Cafe siege 10yrs ago, we must also reflect upon whether Govts have truly listened to and learnt from this tragedy.

The social media firestorm amid Aprils Bondi Jtn & Wakeley attacks demonstrate there is far more work to do

@kymtje.bsky.social hello!! So lovely to reconnect after the bird-app dumpster fire

Banana taped to wall sells for nearly $10 million at auction A piece of conceptual art consisting of a banana duct-taped to a wall has sold for $US6.2 million ($9.57 million) at an auction in New York.

In possibly the most Bondi moment ever, the kids “lemonade, bake sale, friendship bracelets & toys” stand down the road includes a banana duct-taped to a Kmart frame…

Perhaps the first lemonade stand to hit the $10mil mark! Aim for the stars kids! (Context: www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11...)

Hope you can get some restful sleep and some quiet downtime in the weeks ahead. What an adventure! 💜

Sydney folks - head outside for an amazing post-storm sunset

Happy Antarctica aday @drpolarbird.bsky.social !

Dec 1, the day in 1959 when Australia was one of the 12 original Antarctic Treaty signatories, and now one of 49 countries. Here's to the original treaty principles- peace, scientific endeavour & international cooperation 👏❤️🐧

A glimpse of last Saturdays farmers market produce with this amazing peach and nectarine upside-down cake! Only the second time I’ve made this (& many thanks to my 1st taste-tester @drruthmitchell.bsky.social) but it’s so good! Lemon and yoghurt cake balance the fruit well.

Hello!! Lovely to find you!!!

Hello!!!! So lovely to see you again! Slowly cross-referencing and finding the wonderful people from the Bird App dumpster fire.

Beautiful!

A group of 5 adelie penguins are standing on snow on the sea ice. In the back ground are brown rocky outcrops, these are the Swain Islands. The sky is blue with no clouds. It’s a perfect Antarctic summer day

Here is a penguin

It’s an Adélie penguin

It’s my placeholder penguin til I can sort my photos from an epic day out walking on the sea ice around the Swain Island group ~40 minutes away from Casey station

WOW!! That’s brilliant!
