My oldest is turning 21 tomorrow! Here she is up a Norfolk Island pine 13 years ago - now the sky’s no limit and she’s travelling all over the world! 💚

Great article on climate action! ‘What is needed now are not the menus - but the recipes, cookbooks and cooking classes of climate action.’
Yes, the debate of how this is communicated is also fascinating & never-ending.
Does optimism inspire or reassure? Does pessimism motivate or disempower?
The answer is as complex as are people.
Though we probably should communicate more about action than the issue...

"We need stories that honor our unique circumstances while simultaneously insisting on our shared peril, and our shared responsibility to muddle through this together, however we can."
Really interesting article — recommended.

Sky, leaf, blossom
Grass tree trunk, decades worth of spiralling leaf bases dotted with resin! Inside, aerial roots that feed from moisture and nutrients sourced from above the ground 🍃

This was an interesting formation, coming in at an unusual angle to the main rays, snaking and twisting about.
I like the big storms, and their unusual structures!

The legendary grass tree meadow at Boranup. These folks are biodiversity hotspots and bursting with bats, lizards, snakes and birds - so you really have to watch your step if you’re looking for the spider orchid that only lives at this one spot in the whole world! 🍃

Looks like a magic gate 🤩
Sounds like a luxury to me - horrible 36 degrees here today … when even the spiders move into the fridge
That is amazing- please post more marine plants! 🤩

This year’s Marri blossom is about to boom after a year of good rain - picture huge trees right across the landscape dripping with honey-scented flowers and smothered with love from raucous cockatoos and billions of tiny invertebrate souls. On a full moon a heavy blossom event rivals the aurora 🤩
In November of this year (2026) Voyager 1, NASA’s deep-space probe, will be one light-day away from Earth. The first ever spacecraft to reach this historic milestone. Launched in 1977, Voyager 1 is currently exploring interstellar space 15.8 billion miles away. #Aerospace #Voyager1
Karri near Manjimup, home to some of Western Australia’s historically tallest trees.
Now that logging native forests is banned the giants might just return for our grandchildren to marvel at 🤩

The Pilbara region of Western Australia is home for five of the animals worst affected by habitat destruction in 2025: the northern quoll, night parrot, ghost bat, Pilbara leaf-nosed bat and Pilbara olive python. #auspol #nature www.theguardian.com/environment/...
Accidentally drive the long tree way through national park instead of going by the highway and was rewarded with this vision 😍

Banksia’s are an iconic and very ancient Australian genus - dandelions are exotic weeds here 🤣

First tree walk of 2026! 13km through the Dryandra Woodland, a remnant island in the devastated wheatbelt region of West Oz. This is a stand of powderbark, Eucalyptus accedens, at twilight 🍃
