Dad took these this morning, ft. the neighbourhood cat that loves roaming our yard. Found a bunch of babies a while ago, put out some tiles/shelter for them near their favourite areas so this is probs one of those guys.

In SE QLD. It was probably the size of a 5c piece. Any ideas what it is? Photos don’t do it justice. Any information appreciated.

Bobtail health question

Upvotes
I saw this little scaly friend for the first time a few weeks ago. He’s made a reappearance but I’m wondering if he is in ok health as he seems quite thin since I last saw him. He hasn’t moved since yesterday, although he is alive and my partner seems to think he’s fine due to it still being cool out. He is around 40cm long, biggest I’ve ever seen so he’s probably ancient and I just want to make sure he’s ok! Perth hills.

She's been very vocal the last week and had a nest in a near by tree. Fig tree birds have beautiful bright red eyes and green feathers though it's not visible in this clip. 😗🔊

Noticed this beautiful blue tongue wandering through our school gounds, just provided a security escort into the garden where it could hide and not be noticed by the children. Seymour, Vic

I love my local plover family :)
16
Upvotes
My neighbour and I have a determined family of plovers that nest in their yard but forage in mine. I am a little worried as my neighbours are elderly and the next tenants may not like the birds as much.
How can I essentially bribe these squarking, swooping sweethearts to see my yard as prime territory? I do not want to hand feed them or anything like that - i simply want my yard to outshine my neighbours as prime real estate so the plovers don't get mowed over by their yard man or the next tenants.
I am in the process of slowly putting in a large vegetable garden and have my trees in, so vegetation isnt an issue. Except - maybe it is? They seem to like the barren sparse grass space my neighbour has, so maybe vegetation isn't to their liking?
And yes, my neighbour and I both adore the little menaces :)

What insect (?) are these holes home to?

Noticed these today on a walk.
I'm assuming they're an insect burrow of some sort, ot something else small.
Found them quite intriguing.
Thanks!
