  1. #MaryRiver #cod thriving in #BrisbaneRiver catchment, century after relative #Brisbane River cod went #extinct & five years after thousands of fingerlings were introduced.

    #Ecologist & #IpswichCityCouncil #waterway health officer Jack McCann said the Brisbane River cod went extinct sometime in the 1920s or 1930s.

    Their disappearance led to the river losing one of its key apex predators.

  3. Strum those harp strings again!

    Another #flashback!

    It was around grade 4 in primary school & my class was sent on a #fieldtrip.

    Our destination? #LuggagePoint in #Brisbane.

    Why? To be introduced to the smell of #rawsewage!

    How did we get there? On dinky little #ferries along the #BrisbaneRiver.

    There’s nothing like bobbing up & down for an eternity, thinking you’re going to sink & drown at any moment & then be assaulted by the stench of raw sewage.

    I saw lots of #vomiting that day!

  7. While taking a break from the Brisbane Writers Festival yesterday, I had a moment to take in just how tall the CBD skyline here is becoming

  8. In Südost-Queensland, #Australien, deuten #Klimamodelle auf eine abnehmende #Niederschlagsmenge im Brisbane River Becken hin. Dies könnte zu einer geringeren #Hochwassergefahr und reduzierten Zuflüssen in den Somerset-Staudamm führen. Die Studie nutzt Daten aus acht globalen Klimamodellen und zeigt, dass besonders unter den Szenarien RCP 4.5 und RCP 8.5 die #Regenmengen für verschiedene #Überschwemmungswahrscheinlichkeiten abnehmen werden.

    Ok, as threatened, here are some more #BatsOfMastodon #batstodon

    Quality is variable, mostly tending to poor (low light, ISO noise, motion blur, all synonyms for amateur photographer).

    However I can promise a few shots you've probably never seen before, one capturing IN ONE FRAME, ladies and gentlemen, a bat, a Currawong, a giraffe, a zebra, a human, and a Bus Zone sign.

    Also the Bat v. Currawong aerial duel.

    Plus some close encounters of the chiropteric kind.

    I'll thread these up.
