I'm not able to post as much as I'd like, but the end of my busy period is in sight. I might need to rest for a while and I'll start catching up with all the beautiful people I've met here.

In the meantime, here's a rhododendron flower that I saw on my weekend walk.

I guess it isn't as bad as Brexit or electing an orange fascist dictator, but still a Tasmanian own goal.

Was able to get out for a walk today. Plenty of orchids beginning to show in Hollybank Forest in Northern Tasmania.

Time lapse on the way back from a solo walk to Hartz Peak, #lutruwita. The weather gave me those true southwest feels, whiteout, driving rain and bullet sleet with occasional respite and even some sunshine!

Our new house has a window with a ledge, perfect for cats to sit on and guilt trip us if we leave and take their laps away from them.

#salmon farming in #lutruwita (Tasmania) is a shit show, literally. As someone who lives near the farms, the eutrophication impacts are plain to see. On top of that, we have cowboy regulation and antibiotic cocktails in the mix. https://tasmaniantimes.com/2025/11/emergency-antibiotic-threatens-salmon-export-markets/

We put cats in boarding for a couple of days so as not to stress them (or lose them) during our move. We picked them up yesterday afternoon and after some complaints and some exploring they have both settled down.

One is on my lap after vomiting under the bed earlier. All is normal 😂
