@rdm has inspired me to finally do an #introduction - I think he's been on Mastodon less than 24 hours, and me, well, I've been active a little while. Better late than never?

Kaya, nganyang kwerl leece, wer ngany Whadjak #Nyoongar boodja-k nyininy. I give my respect to the Nyoongar people, and to the Elders of the past, present and those who are to come.

For tens of thousands of years they have lived, worked and played and cared for the land of South West Australia.

They have been very kind to share their #noongarlanguage and their culture with me and I deeply appreciate that.

Likewise my respect goes out to the Elders of First Nations everywhere.

Hello, my name is leece, and I live on Whadjuk Nyoongar boodja. I have a passion for nature and #citizenscience and am a moderator for the Western Shield Camera Project on Zooniverse.

Pronoun wise she/her is fine although I think baal/baalap is better. I'm an #artist - I have a Diploma in Fine Art (sculpture) but mostly 2d these days.

I'm married to @rdm who is a really cool dude who joined me in my interest in #birdwatching , enthusiastically joined me in #mermaiding and taught me how to sail, and to manage a #kayak and generally watercraft, and already loved #sf and #fantasy #books #movies and #ttrpg as well as #boardgame

#GURPS #gm too. I am a latecomer to the world of #lego but have become something of an #afol in the past year or two.
