Any Melbournian who supports the Jewish claim to Israel because they occupied it 2000 years ago can hardly dispute the rights of traditional owners who lived in the Melbourne region for 50,000 years or more.

To be clear—

I don't hate Jews, nor Judaism.

I DO hate: genocide, apartheid, ethnic cleansing, racism, Zionism, ethnosupremacy, white supremacy and settler-colonial 'occupation'.

And therefore: Israel has my ire. Not Jews. Not Judaism. #GazaGenocide #GazaHolocaust

The Israeli government is depraved. It's deliberately starving and murdering children. The world, and Australia, must make a stronger stand with sanctions. The people of Australia demand it.

It's GENOCIDE, Ed—not a catastrophe. Is anyone still waiting for an ICJ determination before naming the Armenian genocide? Do we pretend the Jewish Holocaust didn't happen because there wasn't an ICJ determination?

Name it. GENOCIDE. Committed by ISRAEL. #auspol

Just reposting this which I think is the most gorgeous thing I have seen in my career - a critically endangered orange-bellied parrot feeding on a carpet of daisies after an ecological burn. This was the first time they’d had the chance to feed naturally in 15y and was wonderful to witness

@birdmichael.bsky.social Another one for your help please!
I think these are Brown Thornbills enjoying my birdbath but someone else thinks they’re Striated Thornbills.
What is your expert opinion?

Holidaying in Tasmania (I know, it’s awful, don’t come here) and rapt to visit @kudelka.bsky.social shop! Even found a jigsaw featuring my favourite bird.

I don't need history to prove me right because I am fully capable of judging right from wrong now, in real time. Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians. It is threatening people with ethnic cleansing by forced removal as the BEST case scenario or complete annihilation.

MEMO TO: @australia.theguardian.com

These Palestinians are HOSTAGES.

Palestinians have been HELD HOSTAGE by Israel in Gaza, the West Bank, and Israeli prisons for 76 years and counting.

Please stop whitewashing Israel's many crimes against humanity. #auspol #StopIsrael #FreePalestine

If you can't get the editorial parts of the paper to acknowledge this reality, at least you can buy an ad.

This small bird was spotted today at Cobram along the river. We think it’s a honeyeater but which one?

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

It is disgraceful that instead of promoting international law, Australia’s top law officer is trying to repair relations with a foreign government found by major human rights organisations to be committing genocide.

Too late to leave now for Mafeking - emergency take shelter immediately warning now in place.

In the past week our Environment Minister approved another four monster coal mines that will make climate change worse and turbo charge fires like this that threaten to wipe communities off the map.
