On our nocturnal tour last night we met Mr.Western Banjo and he seemed just as happy about the rain as us. We saw 4 Critically Endangered Western Ringtail Possums, a Quenda and heard the screeches of 2 Brushtails. A lovely night among friends!

This young Magpie was nearly booted from his clan 6 months ago. They pecked his head until the feathers were gone and it was bleeding. But this Maggie we named Moo moo is back with its mates. It is always a bit on the outside, but trusts us and knows we are allies. So glad Moo Moo has his head feathers grown back. Love our resident Magpie Troop. They love our bird baths and eat heaps of the insects around. Win win.

There is beauty in the world… just make sure you look for it.

The southwest is at its driest as we go through a long Bunuru season. However some of the hardy species flower at the most difficult time… and they are truly incredible plants to marvel at - pictured is a firewood banksia - Banksia menziesii. Get out there and have a look around to see who’s thriving at the toughest time of the year.

It’s a cracker out here! Taking it all in, out on the water.

29/03/2024

Whatever you get up to this weekend… be safe… look after each other, look after the places you visit… tread lightly always with respect and aim to leave places better than you found them… however that looks for you. Also… just take care of yourself too. Stop admire the sunset or the Banksia’s in flower and just let nature soothe your soul. Wishing everyone a lovely long weekend. From Jamie and Base and and

The staircase to the moon but not in Broome.

Something that always points me in the right direction is looking for the beauty in nature. This wild wombat we nicknamed Chubbles brought me joy as I admired this incredible creature. Here is a little album of shots from a wee meander in Tassie: https://jvjphotogallery.com/finding-the-wild-in-tassie ( link in bio👆).

As the burnt leaves and ash fall above us our thoughts go to the people who’ve lost their precious properties, to those working hard to control the blaze…. But my mind and thoughts also go to the wildlife that couldn’t get away, to the wildlife that lost their homes, to the bush that will take years to regenerate and the fact that with a landscape scarred by clear felled mining we can’t afford to lose more native habitat and vegetation. It’s heavy and sad and the reality of the world we live in. This fire was an accident started by charging devices in a car ( as far as I am aware). It’s not their fault, but it’s a human cause of fire on the landscape. Heart and thoughts are going out to all those affected by the Waroona fire.

Our Nocturnal Tour showcased our wonderful local wildlife to a family visiting from Japan. Kangaroos, Brushtail Possums and The critically endangered Western Ringtail Possums were the highlights. However badged huntsman spiders and leaf curling spiders, microbats, ho**ey nuts and ant lions were all part of the show! It do satisfying watching guests say oooh and awww about our incredible wildlife!

My favourite local bird… might have to get to print this one for the wall!

Some of the Beauty seen on our Wildflower Tour Today. Join us Monday September 18th for our next tour.

A few of the awe-inspiring Orca passes we captured on video during our trip out to the Bremer Canyon. We had magical conditions! #WesternAustralia #explorewa #justanotherdayinWA #thisiswa #BremerBay #relaxedbynature #seeAustralia #helloperth #australiagram #wanderoutyonder #westisbest #orca #killerwhale #stayandwander #aussieshots #tourismwa #amazingwa #naturalistecharters#abcmyphoto #comeandsaygday #saltandbush #walkingonadream Naturaliste Charters Bremer Canyon Killer Whale and Pelagic Expeditions

Spoonies having a feed in the estuary. They have vibration detectors, called papillae, on the inside of the spoon, which means the Spoonbill can feel for prey items even in murky water and can feed by day or night. Tho, It must be hard to get everything down the spoon! #bestbirdsever #spoonbill

Introducing Matata a local male bottlenose with his mate who we haven’t got an ID on yet. Dolphins cruising our rivers… how special is that?!? We ❤️ our local dolphins so much. To help our local unique bottlenose population we record our sightings on the DBCA marine fauna sightings app. We also help with @estuaryguardians where we can. What can you do to help our local dolphins? 🐬Slow down on boats 🐬give them space 🐬record your sightings to the app 🐬contact @riverguardians to sign up to Dolphin watch to volunteer, 🐬and be sure to keep our waterways clean. #protectwhatyoulove

A happy start to our Easter Sunday kayaking tour… setting up kayaks with 🐬friends swimming by

Immaculate Autumn weather. This is where we walk to on our breaks to think, dream and plan… thank you nature for always being there for us. Guided walks or kayaks this time of the year are amazing. Book in to come explore!

A decision to go for a morning swim… and then coming across up to 200 Carnaby Cockatoos! Oh my what a magical moment to start the day!!!

Down River Meandering... We love our guided river kayak tours because you always feel better, lighter, clearer after a couple hours on the river. River therapy we call it... no need to talk about any issues, just immerse yourself in nature and your mind gets a break from the everyday!

Learning to sail is fun and easy when you try a Yak Sailing Tour. Calm beautiful waterways, stable easy to use vessels, learn to sail lessons and guide that can sail with you until you feel good to go on your own or right beside you. Come learn to sail! Thanks to @mummygunney for getting @georgia_gunther and @lukesugar out sailing with us.

Carnaby’s calling. Some complain about the noise of cockatoos. I cherish their noise, it is Australia, it makes me feel home. This group was part of around 70 Carnaby’s that we found while driving home ( top tip: always keep a car window open so you don’t miss the sounds of nature). Imagine when there used to be flocks of hundreds of Carnaby’s around. Follow @savetheblackcockatoos #blackcockatoocrisis to ensure these birds are making a raucous of noise for generations to come!
