The competition has begun to decide Australia's favourite insect! The first Australian Insect of the Year award from @abcnews is now open for voting.
@TanLoos, author of Living with Wildlife, is one of the six experts who have selected a group of finalists for the prize.
ALT A close up photo of a blue-banded bee. It has bright yellow-orange colouring around its head, while its back half appears fluffy and light striped in pale blue.
ALT Rohan Cleave holiding a Lord Howe Island Stick Insect on the open palm of his hand. It's almost as large as his hand and virtually black in colour.
ALT A close up photo of a common hoverfly feeding on pollen from a yellow buttercup flower. Its body is long and covered in distinct yellow and brown-black markings as if in imitation of a bee or wasp.

So excited for this! Words in Winter festival Daylesford ‘Writing about the natural world can help us first notice nature, but narrative - where living things have agency and inner lives - really fosters connection’ This Sunday 12-1 pm - more info here wordsinwinter.com/events/nat…

Excited to share our review, led by @G_Blackburn_ looking at the co-occurrence of multiple anthro stressors on avian behaviour and cognition, and how the effect of two stressors together may be worse than the added effect of singly. @SoraviaCamilla

How do we change behaviours to improve human-nature relationships? Real world implementation and evaluation is hard. We describe an implementation framework and identify knowledge gaps based on our experience as an academic-government collaboration doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.202…
Ooh this looks great!!!
Australian Brush-turkeys are hated or loved, dividing the nation. Ancient birds building car-sized mounds in gardens, reclaiming their original range. Causing human-wildlife conflicts like no other, fighting gentrification. Yet so amazing. Read more at anngothauthor.com

Super excited by this fine piece of tachylite ! I found it along a gas pipeline running through my local forest - tachylite is related to but not quite like obsidian. Volcanic glass! I knew it was at Spring Hill but not at porcupine ridge where we are
Winter walks in the Wombat Forest - here’s Morning Star track Blackwood at 9:30 am sat morning. Magic! ❄️
How interesting! I see water rats ( I am ‘rat positive’) at Lake Daylesford pretty regularly- usually in late afternoon. Didn’t realise they had such nocturnal habits!
