  1. Today, I ran a chess tournament for kids in the northwest of Tasmania. Outside of the main metro hubs of Hobart and Launceston, there isn't much chess activity, and the atmosphere was buzzing, the kids revelling in the chance to participate in their chosen pursuit while parents were so thankful. It was an unbelievably feel-good experience 🙂

  16. Wombat Butt Lore

    A wombat has one of the strongest behinds on the planet. Fact. It's reinforced with a tough plate of cartilage across the lower back and rump, which helps protect it from predators. Wombats can back into their burrows and use that butt to crush dogs, foxes, or other attackers against the tunnel walls. They don't just defend; they kill with their butts. That butt gets itchy. And with stubby little legs and arms built more for digging than scratching, the wombat has to get creative. Cut to: […]

  17. Solar Setup v2

    Time to think about version 2 of the solar setup. Version 1 is in this post. I’m still mildly amazed it’s all running, given it was thrown together in a hurry by someone with zero experience. I’m still getting nightly wildlife clips, which is a far better use of time than doomscrolling the daily news. The only real worry is that the system will fail and I won’t know why, because I only have access to the camera itself. The Eufy camera has its own solar panel, so I can at least […]

  20. Shed Costs: An Unremarkable Breakdown

    First read the post about building the she if you haven't already done so to set the context of this post. This post is a short, factual update on the costs—materials only. Time, effort, and travel have been excluded, mostly for my own benefit so I don't think too much about it. As expected, most of the money went into timber (the treated kind) and the corrugated iron for cladding. Still have two sheets left over, currently awaiting inspiration. Most of the shed is built from treated […]

  22. Some of you haven't obviously read "The Art of war" and it shows when you turn up in hope that I'm dying at home, when in reality a friend watched you turn up like a stalker with your partner and were caught on every neighbours camera contemplating about breaking into my home, idiots.

  23. I just checked the camera at the quoll spot & am pleased to see we have a new one - this youngster. By comparing their unique spot patterns I've identified at least 21 individual spotted-tailed quolls in the three years we've lived here.

  24. CW: Spider (Mr Fuzzylegs)

    Mr Fuzzylegs has been wandering around by house for a few days & turning up in unexpected places. Yesterday, I accidentally put my hand on him as I was going upstairs. It turns out he also has a fuzzy butt.😆 Don't worry, we didn't hurt each other. Here he is today after collecting cobwebs.

    The movie Arachnophobia made this species out to be deadly but they're actually harmless to humans.

  25. THE LITERATURE OF ADVENTURE…
    This is a review of a book about the daring and adventurous people who explored Tasmania's wild rivers in the time before doing that became popular.

    The book is a different history of Tasmania.

    Have you read it? Have you kayaked or rafted the same rivers as the author? Let's know in the comments.
