I'll be happy if either win. I love them both. I usually vote tawny, but have mostly voted Baudin's cockatoo this year because its an endagered local. I think it's the tawny's year this year.

Tawny Frogger update. Little known fact - Tawny camouflage is so effective it interferes with phone camera focus. This is the watch frogger, the other frogger is on the nest with two baby fluff muppets just visible beneath him/her #WildOz #Birds #TawnyFrogmouth #BirdOfTheYear #Birdlife

Happy Birthday Yuri !
Yuri is 12.
He is very vocal, but due to our lack of aptitude in the language of Librans and black cats, we do not know what he wants. He persists. #blackcats #cats

That's right mulberry fans - it's mulberry time! Time to get stains everywhere. Mulberries taste great, but woodbugs do not. Don't eat the woodbugs! #mygarden #mulberries 🌱

A bowl with purple red mulberries and oranges. There are two green woodbugs on the mulberries.

Me enjoying mulberries. A mulberry stained hand and face.

Understandable, they are very plain when not in flower.
They look really lovely in a mass display though.

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage.
This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country.

#WildOz I get to see a lot of beautiful wildflowers on my orchid hunts, and just bush walking around my area. They are everywhere this time of year.

One of the forms of Lechanaultia found in my area, this is the pink form, we also have a bright red, and a stunning blue form. These are like jewels spread on the ground.
