At a time when so much is disappearing beneath the human footprint, CPBBD is willing to do whatever it takes to document these plant species and the ecological communities they are a part of before they're gone for good.

    Tony; because of you, not only have I been successfully guerrilla planting for years. Today I got my Fortune 500 company to convert our flower beds into local flora to sustain bee and butterfly habitats on the property.

    There's nothing better than Gondwanan conifers! I'll be heading to New Caledonia in a year and can't wait to check out all the bizarre paths evolution took on various gymnosperms, and all the relict species that eke out a living. Some day I'll have to check Tasmania off the list too.

    Get out there in December - the scoparia flowers in a spectrum of colour, from white and cream through to orange, pink and magenta. A true glory. You'll just have to come back someday, it'll be worth it. Edit: There's a grove of Arthotaxis in the Walls of Jerusalem NP, at a place called Dixon's kingdom. The specimens there have eluded the many fires that ravaged Tasmania since 'invasion' and they are huge, likely as big as your Chilean cousin. I'd share photos if I could. Great entertainment, I'm learning stuff.

    Tiger snek's are pretty cold tolerant, to an extent they warm up ok in the sun alone.
    One thing I was thinking because I know you like the rawks is that Tasmania has something quite unique that the mainland doesn't, is glacial lakes. They're not very big but from memory there's only about 3 of them within the entire Australian territory and they're all down there, Lake Westwood, Dove Lake and there's another one I can't remember the name of.

    Ive been loving the drone footage in the last few months, it really adds something. When we were over there a few weeks back, I managed to land my brand new air2s in the river where it sat on the bottom for probably 10 minutes. Opened it up and dried it out with a hair drier where we were staying and fuck me, it still flies perfect. Testament to the cleanliness of the water there perhaps?

    @efangrim8470 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    on the Hakea seed note, they don't really need fire to open as most people say, direct sunlight on warm days can be enough to cause them to open and if the fruit dries out if/when the plant dies or the limb comes off the tree for any reason, the dead plant/limb dries out, fruit opens and drops seed.
    It's a kinda weird survival mechanism that some Australian plants (Hakea, Banksia and some Leptospermum sp. for eg.) hold onto their seed until the event of damage or death. be it fire, storm or other causes.
    On the snake deaths, yearly average of snake bites and deaths, about 3000 bites a year occur, on average 2-3 people die a year, 2018 has the highest death toll of 9 people.
    Also like 90% of snake bites happen when people are trying to kill/capture/man handle snakes, so the best rule is don't fuck with them, and they wont fuck with you.

    Yep, _Tasmannia lanceolata_ can get quite a bigger than that... over thirty feet tall in the right conditions. A pity you didn't get to see _Bellendena montana_ at its' best, the flowers are nice enough, but in early Autumn/Fall they're followed by bright red papery follicles full of seeds.
    Edit/PS: The thing that drives me crazy about Tasmania's thylacine bounty in the 19th and early 20th centuries is there is basically _no evidence they were harming sheep at all._ In the end, all the thylacines were killed by a bunch of ninnies who were scairt of the unfamiliar wild things in the Australian wilderness. They destroyed so much (plants and animals) just because it didn't look British enough. _Ugh._ Talk about the "human tumor".
