  7. Thirty great medieval epithets for people and beasts

    Why do we say a gaggle of geese, a flock of sheep, a pride of lions or a swarm of bees? Well it harks back to medieval times when sportsmen grouped together collectives of beasties to refer to them in movement or attributing a quality to them – presumably while the poor creatures ran away in terror from their sounding trumpets and dogs in chase.

    And so began the tradition that animals were distinguished by their own unique epithet. Attributing the wrong epithet to an animal was akin to social suicide in those days. It was a way for the posh to recognise those who came out in yesterday’s wash.

    Although a lot of these epithets are now obsolete, they come in and out of favour. It’s hoped by adding them here that they return into use in some miraculous way.

  8. Distinguished Professor David Lindenmayer AO, writes to inform and educate, not to advance his own interests in conservation and ecology. In this piece is all you need to know about #Victoria ‘s #NativeForest #Logging. Prof Lindenmayer asks:
    “The native forest logging industry has stopped in Victoria and Western Australia. Right? Wrong. The industry persists – but in ways that continue to damage forests and, in some cases, increase their susceptibility to future fires.” He then illustrates how this logging merely continues under other guises.
