Like an old dog learning a new trick, I'm ridiculously excited that at 47 I've learnt to put on my tank like the boys do.
Incidentally, none of the boys are impressed. They all think I should have been able to do this years.

Helped farmers fence and manage Coppabella ck for #booroolongfrog rocky habitat in 2009. Less rock in places but overall better outcome for wider range of spp..i think. #longtermmonitoring will tell us!

22 years and some 15,000+ kms of spotlighting, someone managed to snap a photo of me doing what I do - #wandering

I see you. Tiny male Sloane’s froglet calling for a mate at one of my regular monitoring sites around Thurgoona. These winter-breeding frogs favour shallow wetlands with lots of ‘skinny’ veg like common spikerush #LongTermMonitoring #SavingOurSpecies #FrogConservation #WildOz
Nice to see 80 new Whooper Swan arrivals WWT Martin Mere including a few ringed individuals #LongtermMonitoring
The best office on the planet! According to me anyway #grasslands #wandering #longtermmonitoring #threatenedspecies
Many resights this year already, which means more and more recruits in our study area that are starting to breed. Also, we are starting to have sightings of 2020 fledglings! #CommonBuzzard #LongTermMonitoring
PUFFIN RESULTS ARE IN.We have our first breeding success data for 2021 from Isle of May and can confirm that puffins have had a good season with the overall breeding success 5% above the long term average (from 46 years of data) and second highest this century. #LongTermMonitoring
Please enjoy this ADORABLE #shearwater , waiting patiently outside the same burrow night-after-night for his love to return 💕🐦🏝
(Note: he has nail polish on his head bc we already read his band number) #AdriftLab #seabirds #LongTermMonitoring #LordHoweIsland
