Translink have added a sidewalk to Dollarton road - between Roche Point and the First Nations area. It’s not all the way, we can’t yet walk safely in and out of Deep Cove along Dollarton, it it’s a bit safer. Yay 🎉 #translink

“Who are you and what are you doing here? Get out of my space!” #Australia #birds

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

I wish people in the US would care more about the cruelty, starving children, people killed, and all the horrific shit the US has inflicted on the world recently - more than fucking the price of gas. #uspol

Way to go, Andy!

Did a half in Rockhampton on the weekend. Got a new personal best for half marathons, my second time this year. I’ve now done a half marathon on 5 of the 12 months of the year 😁👍 ✅✅✅✅✅☑️☑️☑️☑️☑️☑️☑️ #running

Nankeen Kestrel soaring with freshly caught prey in its claw. #photography #birds #oz #australia #lizard

A large bird of prey is seen from below, soaring in a clear blue sky. Clutched in its claw is a freshly caught lizard, which it is bringing towards its beak, ready to eat.

Andy seems to be able to get way better photographs of butterflies than I can. I think I’m too impatient.

Superb fairywren. Yes, it definitely lives up to its moniker. #photography #oz

A small wren with bright blue head perches on the grass.

Great way to start my birthday! A whole flock of Galahs flew noisily over the campervan, waking me up, and landed in a nearby tree. They were kind enough to stay and pose for photos! #photography #oz #birds

A pair of pink and grey birds are perched in a tree, surrounded by green leaves. The bird on the left is nibbling on a clump of seeds.

On the right side is Sydney Harbour Bridge at night. On the left, the bridge is reflected in the windows of the Sydney Opera House. Lights on the bridge are reflected both on the windows and on the pavement.

Black swan stretching its wings. #photography #birds #nz

A black swan with outstretched wings upright in the water. The outer feathers of the wings are white.

2 of the funniest looking birds I’ve ever met - a Royal Spoonbill and a pair of masked lapwings - and they were hanging out together! #photography #nz #birds #wildlife

A Royal Spoonbill stands in the water. There is a water droplet about to drip off its long black spoon-like beak.

Two masked lapwings stand in some green and brown grass. The background is the blurry blue sea.

Diving New Zealand Scaup in Queenstown #NewZealand #birds #diving #ducks

A brown duck half in half out of the water. The water is so clear the duck’s face under the water as it’s diving. A bit of water splashes over the duck.

Seagull at sunrise over the ocean at Paihia, NZ

A flying seagull is silhouetted against the sea and sky, which are shining golden yellow as the sun rises over the mountains in the background.
