Mount Misery | Still Not Miserable
Tas Field Nats ascend upon Mount Misery What a marvellous Sunday was spent wandering the tracks at Mount Misery with an equally marvellous group of people. The Field Nats last visited Mount Misery in 2018, you can read about it here. That post will give you some info on the walks and how to get there. I won’t bother repeating myself. I’m efficient like that… Back in 2018 I was going through a pretty strong…
Herbarium | Day Ten
We found this weird Stellaria up in the central plateau a while back. We didn’t really notice it was weird at first. We just kinda went ‘it’s a Stellaria, it’s probably just S. multiflora‘ and then moved along looking for what we were there looking for. Which was a Senecio and some Carex. Anyways, I took some photos, because it was really cute and planned to just ID it later. Turns out, that Stellaria multiflora…
Where Where Wedgie? | Zero Heroes
Three black cockatoos, a murder of ravens, a handful of currawongs and a dear little eastern spinebill. But alas no raptors. Never mind, no data is still useful data, and it was a good excuse to go for a wander on the mountain. Not that an excuse is needed. But sometimes, as life gets busier and there seems to be a constant stream of ‘responsibilities’, you start feeling like you need an excuse. Where Where…
Woodvine Wandering | Day Ten
Woodvine Nature Reserve Out the back of Forcett is a 377 hectare property which is managed by the Parks and Wildlife Service as a nature reserve. It was donated to the crown a little while back by the landowner, Ernie Shaw. He understood the importance of what he had on his land. Not simply that it is significant habitat for a range of species and ecological communities which are under threat, but because he could…

Well they do, but they don’t. They don’t…
Tasmanian Female Grappling Collective
TFGC open mat number two Late last year Jess Fraser came down to Tassie to hold an Australian Girls in Gi (AGIG) open mat. As usual it was a fantastic day hanging out with chicks from other clubs and having a roll and a laugh and learning some new Jiu Jitsu tricks. We all had such a great frickin time that we decided it needed to happen more often. So we organised it… and will keep organsing it… We aren’t a team… we aren’t an organisation……
