I'll never get used to crossing paths with a platypus in my own garden. #platypus #tasmania #TasmanianAnimals #australianwildlife

So, using this example, you have some koala habitat on the mainland, and Mt Arthur in Tasmania (home to rare snails, crayfish & quolls). BOTH should be protected but now it's OK to trade mining one for not logging the other?

In Australia, only qualified electricians can do electrical work & getting solar panels is a completely normal thing now. An electrician with solar certification does almost everything including electronic paperwork submission & the power company does the final bit to connect to the grid.

I recently gave away trees in Tasmania. I thought it was for our Landcare group, but what if it was really ANTIFA? 😬

"campaigners from the powerful US Chamber of Commerce and the National Taxpayers Union have urged the White House to push back on countries that use price controls or “undervalue American innovation”." Maybe the CSIRO should take back wifi then.

It's always exciting when a camera trap captures a platypus. When one's in the water a layer of air and water on its fur makes it too cold to trigger the sensors, but this one climbed right out of the water. #platypus #australiananimals #Tasmania #monotremes #nature #cameratrap #trailcam #wildlife

Potoroos & bandicoots are overjoyed that it's mushroom season and are digging little (and some not-so-little) holes absolutely everywhere. The holes help water penetration, provide a place for seeds to land and germinate, and digging helps spread fungal spores. #Tasmania #AusAnimals #Potoroo #Nature

We had one in an office plant when I was working in WA. It was infuriating. Everyone thought it was a frog & someone named it Kermit. Nope, mole cricket. One day it climbed onto the carpet & was taken to live in a park.

Is eastern spinebill season! I love the markings on these little guys. #EasternSpinebill #honeater #AustralianBird #Tasmania #Autumn

Photo of a tiny bird with long slender beak perched on a piece of fence wire and looking straight upwards. The top of its head is black and chin is white with a large brown smudge. It looks like it's wearing a chestnut-coloured jacks with black lapels over a white shirt.

Photo of the same bird, this time looking to the left with its tongue out. This photo shows black wins and tail, and the rest of it is chestnut-coloured.

Its name should be officially changed to Footy, since everyone calls it that anyway.

Political promises are worthless. For once I'd like a party to be able to run based on what they HAVE done, rather than what they might do.

A family of three moved into our dam this year and built a nest. Instead of laying eggs, they brought three chicks that they'd prepared earlier. Despite the quolls & cats they all survived and we now have a family of six adults.

So, no acknowledgement of the damage caused by petrol & diesel either, I assume?

Don't give up. This time last year, we had a clump of three growing wild that looked worse than that, with no visible green shoots. We thought they were all dead but many months later they all recovered and are now leafy again.

I don't know how difficult it was to get passed, but we have loads of polling stations. Most (if not all) public schools, for a start, & I've never had to queue for more than a few minutes.

I was there too. I was obviously aware of the environmental issues but the effects on water supply and, in particular flooding, hadn't crossed my mind.

Surely that email won't make it past email filters because it contains the word "diverse".

Every one of them should have known that these things shouldn't be discussed on Signal, and any (every) one of them could (should) have put a stop to it. They're all guilty.

Every election, the government says "If you vote for us again we'll do these things in our next term". There's very little "Vote for us because of all these good things in our current term".

A lot of people complain about Sky Muster, but we're finding it to be quite acceptable. We're paying $59 a month for Skymuster Plus Premium (unmetered 25mbps), which is the same as we paid for 12mbps FTTN in WA. It's a bit laggy for phone calls but fine for streaming and we don't do online gaming.

There's no excuse for this. Mount Arthur is home to Tasmanian devils, Eastern & spotted-tailed quolls, Tasmanian giant freshwater crayfish and so much more.

A couple of nights ago we had the first rain in a long time, causing lots of frogs to climb out of the ferns and up the loungeroom window. #Nature #Frogs #Amphibians #Herps #Tasmania #Rain #auswildlife

Photo of a frog's underside, as seen through a window at night. Its body is semi-transparent and internal organs are visible through its white-spotted skin.

Photo of another frog's underside, as seen through a window at night. This one is climbing to the right, showing off bright yellow thighs.

I was never conscious until now that average Australians generally avoid gratuitously interfering with wildlife. I like the fact that if you do engage in this kind of idiotic behaviour here, you’ll be slammed for it. Makes me proud to be Australian. #wombats #dickheadinfluencers

The turbo chooks found the paddling pool (or "paddy pool") that we put out for the pademelons, wallabies and possums to drink from, and they're pretty happy with it. #Tasmania #NativeHen #TurboChook #Wildlife

Our creek's water level is quite low at the moment, but this hasn't stopped a giant freshwater crayfish (Astacopsis gouldi) from hanging out in one of the deeper pools. It's the biggest one I've seen for quite a while. #Tasmania #ausinverts #AstacopsisGouldi #Crayfish #Freshwater #Nature #Endangered

Photo of a large crayfish sitting in clear water at the endge of a creek. The top of its head is sticking out of the water, showing a small ridge in the centre of its brow. This (as well as size) is the identifying feature of the Tasmanian Giant Freshwater Crayfish.

Arkys are one of my favourite spiders. Some Arkys walckenaeri from my place.

Two photos of triangular spiders, on leaves & with two pairs of legs each held in front of them. The one on the left is a yellowish orange and the other is pinkish orange. Both have a white-dotted pink line in a triangle around the abdomen.

This morning I saw the most amazing spider webs hanging in the rushes. Up close, they look man-made. I couldn't find the spiders, so I don't know who these belong to. #Nature #Spiders #Spiderweb #Arachnids #Tasmania #Australia

Closeup photo of a spiderweb arranged in sqares that look almost exactly like a net made from fine fishing line. There are dewdrops on many of the intersections.

Photo of a tightly spun spider web hanging from the stems of rushes. It is shaped like a round cloth that has been pulled up in the middle to create a central cone. The top of the cone contains sticks, twigs and insects that have been caught.

Larena Woodmore @tasforest.com · 19/02/2025

Yeah, that's what we use on the other type of traps so it's probably what we'll try next

010

Larena Woodmore @tasforest.com · 19/02/2025

Eeuwh. I thought we just had one. It didn't want raisins so we caught it with cheese in this trap. Apparently the second mouse doesn't like raisins or cheese so I'll have to try something else.

Larena Woodmore @tasforest.com · 18/02/2025

We put a trap out to catch a mouse that's been running around on the verandah. No luck, but if the possum had been able to get in it would have. With no moving parts, pokes from a possum don't disable this type of trap. #BrushtailPossum #MouseTrap #Wildlife #Australia #Tasmania #australiananimals

The robins are back! There weren't many last year but now there are are lots of scarlet and flame robins about. This photo of a male scarlet is the reason there's an old piece of plumbing pipe propped outside the dining room window. #robins #australianbirds #Tasmania #redbirds #nature
