Into bushwalking, cooking, climate science, tech, birds and the bush.
A bit of a doomer and sometimes optimist depending on the mood
Made it to the top of Mt Jagungal on snow - yay. 4 days return from Munyang power station. A whiteout on top, we weren't hanging around. Awesome trip. Had a big day today back to the car to avoid some crappy weather incoming.

I'm increasingly seeing ai generated content at work to review.
Often it is just straight regurgitated and inaccurate slop with lots of jargonistic nonsense.
The onus is on the reviewer to pick up on the BS.
I've become very vocal in my disdain.

Not the best place to camp when it's windy. The sunrise photo helped make up for it.

A wander through Mugi murum ban.

Walked the red track through bungonia gorge. Creek was still pumping from the recent rain. Only a few spots where we got our legs wet.
Just an awesome walk

Had some of my favourite visitors around doing some cones.

Providence petrels are the most amazing or possibly silliest birds. Make lots of noise and they jump down the trees to investigate.

Currawongs getting rather too friendly today.
There were such of them that greeted us at the lookout - Lord howe island

Random photo drop. This was the first flower on our Gymea Lilly 10 years ago. Several years later it puts out multiple flower spikes every year.

Any guesses what our gorgeous little Missy is thinking?

Walked down to the Grose river this afternoon. Sunshine briefly, before clouds and rain returned.

The most amazing forest I've ever seen and definitely worth the walk.

Top of Mt Gower on Lord Howe island. Will return soon.

I haven't posted in a while.
Pic is from a kayak trip to South West Tassie last month. Awesome trip.
Lotsa highlights.
Seeing range bellied parrots at Malaleuca may have been the most exciting moment.

Wander through the blue gums

I'm being kept awake by the calls of a boobook close by and a spooky powerful owl further away. Love the bush.

After the last few days, hard to believe this is Broken Bay North of Sydney. Had a great paddle from Brooklyn to West Head. Swim at hungry beach - pictured. Was really quiet on the hawkesbury - yay. Wind was quite challenging at times.

The King parrots are taking advantage of us and eating our tomatoes. Happens every year.

Browsing pictures from 2018. Blue gum detail in the blue gum forest.

Campsite from the last night below Mt Twynam.

Just came back from seven days walking in the snowies where even the dunnies are photogenic.
(Toilet at Tin Hut).

Silkies are just the coolest.

Our beautiful pet cockatiel has human favourites.
A hint, it's not the person who feeds and cleans them (me). 🥲
