Still too early to see them but they’re making one hell of a waking racket this morning :-)

We get them every morning too. But only after the Bush Stone-curlews have already had their say. Full moon nights are very noisy affairs!

Yeah orcas would be a great sight! I've been lucky enough to see them once. 2 orcas off the starboard side, early morning Spirit of Tasmania a few miles out from Devonport. Amazing.

It has finally Lockdown begun, a mate further up towards the high country base has expressed his feral concerns of ‘Planet of the Moose’

It is a problem brother, we’ll have to send up some Vegan whisperers to teach them dinger rollbacks first hand :-)

nothing a good rifle shot or two can't fix.

These little guys are nesting in every tree in the desert at the moment. Was amazingly noisy in the Eyre Creek area.

I heard a Tree Creeper singing so I had another go a getting a good pic. It had moved on, by the time I got the camera.

This little creature wasn't camera shy at all.

I think it is a Thornbill of some sort, but I am happy to be told otherwise.
