@bidgeewidgee That pale form is lovely!

Troubling story. In summary: front bit of resort is lowish & sun-facing. Rarely holds decent snow anymore so they’re over-developing a remote, snowier area for tourists. This is climate change-fuelled enviro destruction and shame on you @fallsaustralia theguardian.com/australia-news…

A thread on how not to use @inaturalist . On October 5th I was contacted about an observation of Spotted Lanternfly in the Houston area. This would be a significant range extension and a first for Texas.

This is absolutely unacceptable. There is an alternative to this massive destruction. The NSW gov needs to commit to the Talbingo reservoir substation option. theguardian.com/environment/20…

The first bogong moths have made it to Charlotte Pass! #bogongmigration #mothtracker They are now listed as Endangered on the @IUCNRedList so if you see a bogong moth, please record your sighting on the Moth Tracker website! #ozinsects swifft.net.au/mothtracker/

We just published the first climate-risk analysis for global urban forests. We identified the most vulnerable species in 164 cities across 78 countries @EkoLogIt @Beaumontlj @DNAprymer @SallyPowerUWS @ecolo_gist @NatureClimate #urbanforests #urban doi.org/10.1038/s41558…

Mid winter traverse of the Aust Alps Walking Track: 52 days, 700 km, passing through the lands of 9 traditional owner groups, 3 States/Territories, 12 resorts, $62,000 raised for the 'Our Yarning' project. Nice work, Huw. themountainjournal.com/2022/09/19/huw…

We’ve got a mermaid dreaming story on the southern edge of our Country in the Barwon river. He’s (yes he) still there too if you know where to look

Spotted these beauties last weekend ❤️ Bottle Forest Trail is a great spot to see flowering #Waratah in #Sydney without needing to venture off the track. Submitted to @inaturalist #environmentrecoveryproject

Then and now. 3 wet years post-fires has helped a LOT.

Unpopular opinion: you don’t need a college education to be a world class naturalist.

What better day to celebrate FungiMap Inc. than #FungiFriday? The FungiMap project was shortlisted for a 2022 Eureka Prize! This project empowers citizen scientists, supported by ecologists & mycologists to observe and map thousands of fungi species. #citizenscience
