Summer Is Still Clinging On…
Mad as it is, we are still enjoying high teens in the temperatures. 18C at the weekend, 17C today, 20C tomorrow (mid to high 60sF), but then it falls away to the long-term average of about 14 to 15C. I … Continue reading
Allsorts Going On…
Loads to share this week. Eight bush-weary trackers made it this week. Ram, Marcus, Steve, Reece, Dave, Andrew, Martin, and Paul. This is the last month of the Bird Nesting Season, so we are kinda focused on September, when we … Continue reading

Seven of us turned out today for our weekly dopamine hit. Marcus, Reece, Mark, Ian, Martin, Matt, and Paul, and we had just today to finish the work on this first section (see September Jobs tab). 600 metres of 3,500 … Continue reading
How Difficult Can It Be…
How difficult is it to predict the weather just 12 hours ahead? The forecast was telling us that we were going to have a total washout. We changed our plans, yet again, and surprise, surprise, not a drop of rain … Continue reading
