R is a pest mouse. Introduced. Invasive.
Huge economic impact on Australia.
In 2020-20 the NSW Farmers Association est losses of up to a BILLION $ due to mice.
L is a native Antechinus. No cost to agriculture.
Learn to ID the good guys & use live catch mouse traps so you can release the native.
Literally "breaking news" from last night.
#Koalas may not be the sharpest tool in the biodiversity tool box of Australia but they are native, important, and a threatened species and I love having them pass through the garden.
A dish is nothing to replace.
With temperatures due to reach the mid 30s in SW Victoria tomorrow, a lot of native wildlife will be heat stressed.
Especially those Possums who rely on what they can drink the night before to get through a hot day hunkered in a tree hollow.
A shallow dish under a tree does the trick.
Nice to stay connected Catherine.

Native agile antechinus
What happens when you take away feral cats & Black rats?
Fabulous unique Australian natives adopt you.
Tuesday night a plump Agile Antechinus sussed the old cat trap meat.
Mouse-sized native carnivores that hunt mice & insects.
It will help keep our machinery shed & garden mouse-free.
Safer water project is doing EXACTLY what was hoped for.
When a dead section of tree broke off I cut it flat and glued a large shallow dish to it so nocturnal mammals and birds can get a drink up higher in the canopy, safer from foxes and feral cats.
Ring tailed possum.
