Some haustorial art for you @drdave.bsky.social by a local artisan on display at the VT museum. Quite brilliant pieces IMHO. And here's a bird that may have played a role in dispersal of aforementioned plants. He / she has become our 5.30am alarm (phone pic taken through window) #WildOz

Watched this (?)Sand Goanna get harassed by Apostlebirds (known locally in NW NSW as Lousy Jacks) and Magpie-larks / Pee-wees for a good 20 mins. Imagine the mayhem when it charged through a pool party of 20+ kids. Here's a short clip of it making good its escape! #WildOz
