  7. CW: Spider ahead

    I headed into town this morning to do some grocery shopping. On opening the door in the carpark I found this uninvited hitchhiker.

    It’s a huntsman - it’s not uncommon to find them inside houses.

  9. In this hot, dry spell we see a few more birds than usual coming to drink and/or bathe in one of the birdbaths. Here's a female satin bower bird at the bath, under the vine leaves, outside the kitchen door.

  11. I think this is a scarab beetle (rather than a christmas beetle).

    The one pictured was crawling around the concrete floor of our carport last night and is perhaps a Cowboy Beetle.

  13. This young joey is getting more adventurous and will frequently leave mother's pouch and do a few circuits around her, or stand next to her and watch what's happening in her world.

  14. This male red-necked wallaby is checking us out before deciding whether to cross the track or not. He eventually decides that there's no danger and hops across to the left of the image.

  15. Peek-a-boo joey.

    Photo taken from our kitchen window. There are 5 or 6 female 'roos, with their young, who spend time in the vicinity of the house. The grazing is easy there as I mow to keep the grass down, and thus let fresh, soft, green shoots grow.

  16. And there are now hundreds of sundew (Drosera sp.) carnivorous plants around our property with most in flower. Some are now past their best, others are only now beginning to appear.

  17. Heading into the café at the NERAM (New England Regional Art Museum) in Armidale I was met by this gorgeous bronze sculpture. “The Artist's Mount, 2019” by Tim Storrier.

  18. Our view as the dogs and I made our post-sunrise walk along a rural track this morning with the post-rain leaves glistening in the low sun.

  19. A plant that's appearing in large numbers (hundreds) in places on our property where I've never seen them before are Sundew (Drosera sp.), a carnivorous plant.

    I suspect that the above average winter rainfall, and the ensuing boggy ground, has encouraged their appearance.

    They’ll soon produce a small, pink flower.

  20. Small terrestrial orchids starting appearing in our woodlands a few weeks ago. These are Lady Fingers (Caledonia sp.) and are about 5 cm tall.

  21. This cute Eastern Dwarf Tree Frog (Litoria fallax) was sitting on a rose bush outside the kitchen window earlier today. They didn’t mind me bringing the camera quite close to it, so I got a nice pic.

    They’re only about 2 cm (1 inch) long and have to be wary that snakes don't make a snack of them.

  22. As if to confirm that we’ve had a wetter winter than average, I'm beginning to find tens of carnivorous sundew plants growing around the property. More interesting is the fact that they're appearing in places where I’ve not seen them before, and where the ground has remained boggy for a few months. The point being that these plants like wet conditions.

  23. OpenStreetMap has come a long way since 2008. Here’s the map of Armidale, NSW, where I live. I drove every street in the city with a GPS in 2008/2009 to kickstart a more complete map of the place. Compare 2008 to now.

  24. Nearly Spring so the "Early Nancy" (Wurmbea dioica) are starting to appear in our Creek Paddock. The ground is especially wet (and boggy) for this time of year. I even got my vehicle bogged for a time in a place I least expected to fall victim to the wet ground.

  25. Aha! The dogs and I found the first frost of the year while on our morning walk. The temperature in the area was -2.9°C . Winter is coming!

  26. It’s a chilly, misty, moisty morning as we descend into winter. The dogs and I walked through the property after sunrise and stopped to take in this view: the trees disappearing in the mist, the wet grasses, the eastern grey kangaroos[1] left-of-centre, and the Australasian swamphens[2] right-of-centre.

  27. The dogs and I see tens of kangaroos around our property when on our morning walks. Most of the 'roos are quite used to us and just stand and watch us as we pass by.
