Today's walk around Birdsland with the old man. Spotted lots of kangaroos on the way round and paused here too appreciate the views.

Path leading away into the distance, with eucalyptus trees and grass on the sides and overcast skies. Looking towards the city in the distance with grass progressing to trees moving into the horizon.

Bob just wants his sister's rustling under the blanket next to him to stop so that he can go back to sleep.

Big roo thought it needed to sneak across the path after we'd passed, and then slow-bounded away. The bro was so big we scurried past in a hurry.

The yellow-tailed black cockatoo is one of my favourite Australian birds.

Is it good luck if a wombat crosses your path?

Took a walk through Lysterfield with the old man on Wednesday. Lucky to see wallabies and roos, with signs that we've come into Guling season.

Straight path lined with gum trees. Blue sky with some white clouds. A row of flowering wattles amongst gum trees.

Churchill National Park on Wurundjeri Land is home to these Eastern grey kangaroos. Dad counting a mob that made up a large portion of the 39 roos we saw today. Little joey was a bonus. It had friends nearby.

It's a beautiful day in the neighbourhood. Here's hoping the next Australian government prioritises protecting our environment.

I've been added to someone's "drama" moderation list. Those of us on said list are apparently "engaging in drama, usually angry politics". 😂

Which hashtags/words indicate drama and anger, or are they overreacting to a normal response to shit going down? 🤔

Bert's here for whatever the drama is. 👀
