It has been an absolute pleasure working with the Duduroa Dhargal Aboriginal Corporation over the past couple of years on their Reading Healing Project youtu.be/zIXgLsyt4k8 @Gulbali_Inst @CSUMedia
Very excited to share a huge project that's been a long time in the making. Interested in squamate macroevolution? Curious about how snakes fit into the broader ecological context of squamates? Looking for a new squamate phylogeny? Check out our new work: doi.org/10.1126/scienc…

I was riding my motorbike and I thought I saw a dead snake on the side of theroad. I generally don't pass up free stuff. Don't judge we're all human. Anyway, I stopped to collect my snake and it turned out to be a huge blue iridescent earthworm. It was not dead. It was the…

Here’s a great little education article about snakes 🥰
I don’t always feel that we deserve to share a landscape with these ancient and graceful icons of this continent, but seeing that we do for now, let’s treasure and make room for them a bit more. It’s really not that difficult. 🫲🏼🐍🐍🐍🐍🫱🏼 #WildOz
An unexpected find on the block today - woodland blind snake - Anilios proximus #wildoz
New bird for the block! Bit of a surprise to have a Baillon’s crake fly into my shed and join me on the couch last night. After a quick health check I relocated it into the reeds around my frog pond. #wildoz
I’ve been spruiking snake conservation for 25 years. Would be so much easier to convince people to stop harming them if they looked like this.
Eureka!!! We built a bunch of rock piles scattered around our block in the hope that they would provide habitat for any of the local reptiles. This one is getting a vote of confidence from one of the sand monitors (Varanus gouldii) that live here🦎 #Gnurlunga #YamajiCountry
We’ve recorded 13 reptile species on a Cumberland Plains Woodland environmental offset reserve this past week. Weasel Skink was a nice find.

Boomers, croakers, growlers and honkers; it’s all still happening in the Lowbidgee but they’d better hurry, with dry times ahead.
Good morning from the mighty Lowbidgee wetlands. They’re drying out fast, having a well earned rest after three years of high water levels from major flooding. But in the meantime, waterbirds and frogs abound. We are still picking up bitterns, especially littles. It’s magic.
