“Like Dr Dudgeon, Ms Egerton is astounded by the transformation from desolate island to subtropical paradise.” A bit of good news. They even make their own soil, now, so there’s no risk of bringing in nasty pests and diseases to Lady Elliot. #WildOz

Am I, perchance, annoying you?

Bell Miner.
A honeyeater found in coastal southeast Australia. They form large colonies and drive out other birds, but they do make a beautiful sound. 😊 #BirdOfTheDay #birds #WildOz

And they’re back, in black!

A fab week of doing animal tracking in the desert.
Bilby burrows and scats, great sunsets, impressive termite mounds and spot the bustard (bush turkey) in the last one. 🐾🔥🌅 #wildoz

Hey Hey it’s Scaturday!
This distinctive piece of poo was found during recent fieldwork. It is quite small and is made up almost entirely of ant bodies.
If you guessed it was from a moloch (thorny devil), you were right!
These distinctive lizards live exclusively on ants.

Sadly, trees used by generations of these Powerful Owls, for cover when newly fledged, to watch over nest sites, to use as corridors when reaching safe areas, and to roost in are being chopped down. No one can tell me why. Trillian, from 2022 and a tree she liked to hide in. #brisbane #wildoz #birds

It’s been a grey day in the Perth Hills today, which brought us some much needed rain after a very dry spring so far this year 🌧️

These flowers did their best to add a dash of sunshine yellow to the day though 💛

We're back with #WildlifeWednesday and next up is the vulnerable Sei Whale (Balaenoptera borealis). These whales are the third-largest baleen whale (behind the Blue Whale and Fin Whale) and with their long, sleek bodies can reach speeds of over 55km/h!
