There was a Brown Treesnake at the laundry door the other night and today in my workshop I found this 1.7m long skin.

Who knew bat poo could be worth millions?
A new study shows Australia's grey-headed flying foxes are dropping bat ripple magic across millions of hectares. Their seed-dispersing guano helps grow a median of around 90 million new trees every year, mostly eucalypts.
That's an estimated 217 million to 955 million boost to the timber industry alone. Not bad for some flying forest gardeners who connect bushfire-scarred landscapes like pros.
Time to stop seeing them as pests and start celebrating these keystone heroes. Protect the bats, protect the forests.
