I heard a cacophony in a tree nextdoor, which turned out to be a couple of Channel Billed Cuckoos trying to get jiggy with it while all the neighbourhood magpies were squawking at them to move on #birds.
a channel billed cuckoo leans forward to put its beak (probably containing food) into the beak of another cuckoo who has bent its neck backwords to accomodate one cuckoo hanging upside down from a branch while another flutters below, trying to bang beaks a cuckoo on a branch, chilling despite the presence of many squawking magpies (not in frame) a cuckoo on a branch

I have devised a foolproof age verification system to ensure that only older Australians can access social media sites.

I have sent my invoice to the federal government.
Thankyou for your attention to this matter

Snapped my first rockwarbler. These are the only #5bird that is endemic to NSW. Looks a bit like a thornbill but it hops around on the ground rather than flitting from bush to bush.

New toy seems to have done the trick. Cleaned up a mess in the yard and scored a few days worth of firewood

Good lord what have I done? Guess I better read the manual while the battery charges.

An amazing day to be out hiking in the blue mountains. Had the incredible privilege of finding a shelter cave with intact art. Ochre stencils plus black charcoal drawings which I dont want to disclose as they are too distinctive.

Since I am officially working I cant actually watch the NBA playoffs. Am monitoring this graph instead:
pyplot generated line chart with play by play points differntial of Thunder vs Timberwolves. It is currently showing the score is 36:37 with 8mins 17 seconds remaining in 2nd quarter. The biggest lead so far is OKC up by 8 but MIN is currently ahead by 1.

Went to check out the funky little underground art gallery near soldiers pinch. Very enjoyable.
Some cool aerosol art, which I am not able to completely decipher More aerosol art which i can't decode Several bits of art spray painted on a tunnel wall. The central panel is a black figure with 4 hands. Aerosol art which I can't read but enjoyed looking at.

My latest fascination is reading sports tribunal decisions / appeals. So much pettiness, pedantry and drama. This thread is to catalogue tribunals I have found that publish decisions online.

A thread of youtube channels that appear to have 2025 Waratah Youth League (basketball) games. Mainly for my own future reference.
