Just reposting this which I think is the most gorgeous thing I have seen in my career - a critically endangered orange-bellied parrot feeding on a carpet of daisies after an ecological burn. This was the first time they’d had the chance to feed naturally in 15y and was wonderful to witness 😭😭😭🧡🧡🧡🧡

PUPPY PILE!!! PUPPY PILE!!! #puppyclub

Looking forward to chatting with @helenshield.bsky.social on ABC Hobart at about 21:10 tonight, about why things - like #LastOneLaughing - are quite so funny... 🤡 youtu.be/-HeAAhlNNgw?...

What would be a great Tasmanian band name? #Tasmania #Lutruwita #music

And here was I forgetting the garnish. Bob had to get his own coriander tonight, the poor pup

St. George Bank's online banking is reportedly down for many users today. Are you affected too? #StGeorgeBankDown #StGeorgeDown

I've just found the best hack. Swear in your search request. It's a great way to bypass the AI summary and make your search history look like you're chronically pissed off at everything!

I had a chat with Helen Shield at ABC Hobart about our SimCity twinning hopes www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

My look at an interesting - and maybe prescient -- media situation down in Tas, where a string of local papers & a polling company have passed to owners that also operate a powerful lobby firm, & who have worked on campaigns for the incumbent Liberal government www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

You can say that it’s a fascist or Nazi salute because *it is*. Complicated, I know.

Great to see more folk from #tasmania still arriving here every day! Here are two starter packs of Tasmanian users that might help you find some familiar faces. These links can also be shared on other platforms to encourage folk to make the move over here! go.bsky.app/Dhstko4 go.bsky.app/QdK7iXR

Popped out to see the stars just now but the curtains were drawn

My phone is an ancient potato which can’t do night photos so it picks up not much more than the naked eye. View from my balcony tonight is therefore pretty much this #aurora #realisticaurora #stilldamncool #auroraaustralis

March boldly into 2025 and if you don’t like the smell of someone, don’t be afraid to change course #wombatwisdom #wombat #Tasmania #Lutruwita #cute

Let these furry tanks mark your new year with cubes of joy #wombat

Bracing for the crowds for NYE* *crowds of wombats and cape barren geese #tasmania #lutruwita #NYE

Not pictured: the leftover limoncello and raspberry trifle I had for breakfast, eaten out of a teacup, with extra custard. Hello Boxing Day, you cheeky minx

I can see why humans have always been so keen on getting together to feast. That’s a good time.

After all there’s only one more sleep #christmas #muppets

Watched a Rhys Nicholson Christmas special while I wrapped presents last night. Rhys is just charming and hilarious without fail. I reckon I’d be entertained watching them wait in a GP clinic.

the correct way to pronounce "pantomime" is "panto" because the mime is silent

On the 15th day of Christmas, my dear friend gave to me: one golden Tucci! What’s the least creepy place I should put this? #christmas #advent @stanleytuccireal.bsky.social

A mate told me he walked 50km in a day hiking OS, I was in awe, I said that's like walking from Hobart to...how far's Kempton? checked a map and it’s 49km. I have never been so proud of myself. Suddenly I’m prouder of me guessing the distance than I was of him for walking it in a day

What’s the last thing which made you feel irrationally proud of yourself?

It’s always a good day, isn’t it #waratah #lutruwita #tasmania

The second-best time to love camping is when you are at home and the power goes out before you’ve had a coffee. To the gear cupboard!

My friend and I have made each other advent calendars. I don’t know what I was expecting on day one but it wasn’t a cat-whisker wreath. This is up there with the song where the true love keeps turning up with all the live birds. #christmas #advent #bestkindofbonkers

Let’s pick up where left off then, shall we?
