@CountLustig Another #fridayillusion for you - a tender moment between Dutton and Albanese (via ABC News)
@Twitchathon @wtb_Michael Update: according to the Aus Birds guide, the toes give it away!
@Twitchathon @wtb_Michael Thanks! I thought it looked more affronted than frowny, which seems a sparrowhawk attitude
Just wanting to confirm my bird ID, is this a Collared Sparrowhawk @wtb_Michael @Twitchathon?
@wtb_Michael @Twitchathon It wasn’t terribly big, so I’m leaning towards the sparrowhawk… It’s gone now, but I probably wouldn’t toss coins at it anyway
@Lannyopolis Obviously there’s gold… um, it’s kind of a Frankenstein story, and… I don’t know, “grrrrr?”
As if the nepo babies didn’t already have enough, now they have a feature about them
Unless these books say something different to what I expect, we have a problem here (okay, I’ll accept Astronomy)
@MaireadDoyle I wasn’t sure whether to name and shame, but it’s actually Readings in the Emporium, Melbourne
@jameshutson I cannot speak for the ERs (although I can speak now!), but anecdotally there’s a lot of laryngitis going around
@jameshutson I had something similar about a month ago, bad hayfever days that escalated into laryngitis. Paranoia about childcare bugs led to a throat swab that showed rhinovirus and adenovirus... Took over a week to get my voice back
I had a great time chatting to @MichaelEMann, always good to talk about how basic physics underlies the serious climate consequences we’re seeing. The consequences themselves, not so good
In our latest episode, we speak to climatologist @MichaelEMann about THAT hockey stick graph of historic temperatures, and how not to give in to doom in the face of climate change @3CR @thinkincAU 3cr.org.au/lostinscience/…
Our twins recently picked up Covid from childcare (we strongly suspect), and now we’ve received an email about an unnamed “illness” going around… Whatever could it be?
With the #AussieBirdCount on it’s a great time to support @BirdlifeOz, but, um, I think these posters have the wrong Brunswick… What do you think, @Twitchathon?
@wtb_Michael Disagree! We always used to stop in Gympie when driving south from Bundaberg, and you didn’t need to pay to get in to see it either
