This little one is checking out the world from a cosy pouch position just outside my window
#lutruwita #wallabybaby
A small brown wallaby Bennett’s wallaby) sitting on short patchy grass with an even smaller wallaby joey visible in her pouch. The joey has its forelegs poking out from the pouch and is looking well satisfied with its lot (yes that is an anthropomorphic projection of its emotional state and almost certainly ill-informed)

Friday night dinner with comfort food requires the perfect tableware, care of @firstdogonthemoon.bsky.social x @brontelee.bsky.social
Two dinner plates with black glazing next to a cooktop and pan of passata -one plate shows an image of Brenda the civil disobedience penguin saying “not everyone can fly Marjorie”, the other has an image of the peccary of love and many hearts

Googly eyes
Fishing boat in a marina viewed from the front, with two round frames on its windows that look like googly eyes and a prow that looks like a gap toothed smile

This morning’s sky was stunning - layers and layers of cloud!
Clouds stacked in four levels with dark clouds at the bottom and whispier clouds lit by the sun against a blue sky at the top layer

Yesterday - Margate
A view across still waters towards an island with boats on moorings in the middle distance and the end of a jetty in the foreground. Clouds in the sky are mirrored in the water.

The picture shows a small harbour town with moored boats and a view down the Channel. The sky has mottled grey clouds and the water is calm.

Piper is supervising my efforts in building cages for plants — she thinks she could do a better job of keeping the wallabies and pademelons await, if I let her!
#TasmanianGardening #LockUpYourSeedlings
A black dog with a grey muzzle is lying on a wooden deck and looking at the camera. Her front paws are crossed and she exudes an air of bored patience.

Very still here in Kettering, Tasmania this morning - thinking of those facing big rain and winds further north. #ExTropicalCycloneAlfred

It’s a good time of year for gang gangs on our morning walks - the one up high keeping an eye on me and piper, while about 6 were lower devouring hawthorn fruit - I love the iridescent green stripes on their backs!
A female gang gang cockatoo with its crest up looking down from a dead tree branch. The gang gang is shades of grey, green and reddish brown, the sky is blue The back of a male gang gang that is eating red fruit from a hawthorn. The backs of the birds wings are grey with iridescent green stripes lit by the sun. The bird’s head is in shadow.

This healthy young wombat rumbled up the hill during our morning walk and then stuck around for photos
Young dark brown wombat with pinkish ears standing on a slight rise in long green and brown grass, shaded by the photographer Same young wombat, same pose, but the shadow of the photographer is no longer blocking the light making it’s left pink ear appear to glow in the sunlight Same wombat from a different angle, in profile, bathed in sunlight amidst golden grass
