This cat was AWOL from 8am Friday to 2am Saturday giving her humans quite the upset with her uncharacteristic behaviour. Seen here relaxing in the studio. #CatsOfMastodon #tortoiseshellcat #DirtyStopout needless to say this cat shall be an indoor cat for many days to come. Given tomorrow is the start of a heatwave I doubt she will notice the confinement. Not to self - clear the catio sandbox! #ForTheLoveOfCats

Tiny #shells collected from the beaches of Rottnest Island decades ago last century, held within my grandfather’s gilded #brass cigarette case. #nature #mollusc #vintage #collection #treasures A world in the palm of your hand.

#aquarium progress, water change, plant trim, moved the red leaf plants strands now they have roots and discarded 2/3 of the floating weed. 6 mollies, 1 Otto and uncounted cherry shrimp (there are now babies!) plus various pond snails continue to thrive. Glass ornament by Redgate Glass of Margaret River from some time in 1990s. Aquarium begun beginning November 2025.
