I draw things sometimes! Usually weird little comics. Sometimes I post bird photos from the forest near my town.

An exercise in ornithological silliness: Australian birds named in the style of other Australian birds. Stout-breasted gum-finch sounds extremely plausible, I think

People complain about "LOOKS LIKE MEAT'S BACK ON THE MENU" but in the actual book, same scene, Ugluk says "What do you think? Sit on the grass and wait for the Whiteskins to join the picnic?"

Carnivorous plants & lichen from this morning's walk around the old quarry. It's weird how much it looks like the drawings of alien planets I drew as a kid.
(Drosera glanduligera, scarlet sundew, probably)

The Hume Highway isn't really a road, it's more of a very long thin showroom for high-beam headlights

Wow! Here's my photo of a male spotted pardalote taken in July last year, and another photo taken ~20m down the same track this afternoon. Comparing the pattern of white spots on the head (esp. the small dot at the end of the brow stripe) I'm pretty sure this is the same bird in both pics! #birds

Spotted a pair of very lost-looking shelducks in the middle of the ironbark forest. I yelled "you're not supposed to be here, the lake is THAT way" at them. They went "HORNK HORNK" at me and flew off in the direction I'd pointed.

A tree-creeper checking out a puddle in our local ironbark forest. This place doesn't have great soil, as you can see, and there's no permanent water. Puddles are a welcome luxury!
(She's a bit smaller than your hand, if you're wondering about size.)
