CW: Talking about the weather.
Yesterday, my partner and I took a moment from the earthmoving to sit in the sun and enjoy a chicken and green-thing-from-the-garden wrap. Nice
There we saw this flower.
The trouble is, this one flowered in the second half of March (in #Bywong, near #Canberra). Sometime after that, the first frost should come, and all the bulbs hunker down for winter.
But this photo was taken TODAY. It is mid May.
That poor pink flower bulb doesn't know what the date is anymore. #ClimateChange has buggered up its calendar. The frost hasn't come. Today it was 9° overnight and now it's 20°.So it is flowering a _second_ time.
When you next see a farming or rural person; ask them if their bulbs flowered twice.
Ask them if they think that's a problem.
Ask them if that happened for their parents.
Ask them what they think it'll be like for their children.

@warblington In #Bywong, I am seventeen thousand kilometres away from the #Warblington level crossing. I do love to occasionally find out what the boom gates might be doing in the next half hour. Thank you for this bit of whimsy in an otherwise too serious world.
A small point though; I feel that the minimum open time is probably a minute or two? Predictions like this one might allow Marty and Doc through, but lesser cars would struggle, I think.
Also: Saying 'Warblington' is a marvellous feeling in the mouth. Please tell me it is pronounced as-written, and not something like Bicester or Magdalen?

Steady steady rain in #Bywong.
No lunar eclipse, but masses of little froggies moving about in the night, looking for their next damp home. Will do an eclipse another time. the rain is absohoppinglutely marvellous.
There's nothing quite like overflowing the last #watertank in the string. I can loiter endlessly under the shower. I could learn Italian.#amphibians #frogs #eclipse #KristinaOlsen #wastingTime #blessedAreTheRoofmakers #canberra

We have a tiny bat in the house!
Not at all sure how the sillybilly got in (probably when we came in tonight) but it does not see the way out, and thinks our attempts of catching with tea towels are terrific fun.
We will go to bed. And to the hammerbarn in the morning, to get some vast netting or similar to try again tomorrow. Until then, we have a professional bug catcher on the job, I guess.

Inspired by the common sense of Trump requiring full access to every thoughtcrime before I cross any USA border, and determined that as long as I live, and America is fascist, I want to lay down a solid bank of material.
It is #FuckAmericanaFriday
My duty today will be to report American influence in #Bywong culture, give the correct version and tell American brown nosers to #fuckoff.

Good News from #Bywong Today
The sorrel has recovered now that the bunnies are kept out by a new fence.
The white kangaroo is growing up fast.
I had to give way to a shingleback on the driveway (my partner had to do the same for an echidna yesterday).
It is shingleback sexytrain season, be careful out there boys and girls.The second coat of paint seems dry enough to apply a third tonight, and the cement filler (in the floortiles where the wall isn't anymore) worked a charm.

#Spring in #Bywong. The magpies are set to lay, the wrens are busy and chatty, the bulbs that Peter, the very nice bonkers man planted all those tears ago are UP.
And #bunnies. My lovely #sorrel absolutely murdered in the night by the bloody bunnies. They've discovered a leaky section of electric fence, lucky buggers.

Help me not use #facebook #marketplace please.
I need a pack frame (with pack? I don't really care, yes OK I suppose) to carry about loads of rocks up a hill. It can be beaten up - it will certainly get that way after a short time. -

#GeoCell retaining walls, #MSE Mechanically Stabilised Earth, #Bywong, #Canberra, #australia
I am wanting to build domestic grade retaining-walls, all with green growy things on/in them, and I came across GeoCells.
Trouble is, I am not a company, and the suppliers so far would rather deal with companies, not consumers. Does anyone have a retailer of stuff that looks like this? Preferably with geotextile mat to strengthen the dirt in layers behind it too?

Yesterday, in #bywong.
This butterfly. I wish you could see its metallic sheen. These colours are only three of thousands it made.

Just back from a trip;
Flight from #Canberra - #Sydney - #Tamworth, overnight near #Coonabarabran, then drive with a lunch stop at #Molong at 1pm, back to #Bywong at 4pm Saturday.Why the itinerary? Well I'm glad I pretended you asked.
My partner threw-up suddenly at 3pm Sunday, and now, at 8pm Sunday she's got a lovely #fever.
So, she's caught something horrid, which I've not got (yet?). No respiratory symptoms, no headache, just spew. We've eaten all the same things except for lunch at Molong, but it is 24hrs since then, so ... it's not likely food poisoning.
Mostly only a few people interactions for us both. The planes were barely half-full DASH-8s. Say 25 people in each. No-one obviously sick. But? I #dunno.
What bug is this? Dr. Google has been #rogeredSenseless by LLM AIs. Flutracking has no particular bumps, but yhis one's NOT respiratory, so, they wouldn't, I guess.
Maybe the fedithing can offer their thought.

Good morning #bywong #bungendore #canberra
This is going to take some getting used to. Suffice it to say for now; I give no fucks about my #pufferJacket's stylessness.
