    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Would hate to add Tyrannosaurs and Pterodactyls to the mix Climate Change and our Land of Fire, Flood and Drought.
    Plenty of dinosaurs around these parts.

    Short-tailed shearwaters fail to arrive at Victorian breeding ground for second year

    Very sad but predictable. Looks more and more like an extinction occurring in front of our faces. Focus is always on Kolas and similar. The massive decline in Sea birds is a clear and present warning I think.

    Not just Sea Birds either. 'er indoors & self looking out of the front windows at Boy Blue Wrens they appear to be diminishing as well.


    "er's opinion is that "Cannibal"l Species have moved in & taken the the newly hatched young.

    We used to see heaps of Blue Wrens around the grounds but it appears here there is about 2 Males in 2 separate "schools" Hardly ever see any Females.

    We also used to see a couple of seperate flocks of Fire tails, Red Emblemers,(??) what ever, but even they seem to be on the decline. Galahs are on the increase though. ****ing things

    Fully agree, We have a mass of very aggressive birds are killing of all or most of the hundreds of small birds we have in the parks and well treed areas on the Yarra river I ride along now. It used to be a few of the Noisy Miners. I can see hundreds out side right now. They even attack magpies and kookaburras. I'm hiding a nest of swallows in my shed at work.

    The Yarra? Remind me again, that is the river that one rode along the surface on leaving lawns & paths to one side, right?

    In Folklore that is.

    Ah, that'd be that lot from Ye Olde Ballarat after work on a Friday?

    Wet-suite and helmut ready for the several rapids in the canoe as soon as the 5km limit is extend. There is some walk/bike paths but no lawn up this side. Platypus and and tiger snakes frequent here along with a few nut running or riding like me. More than enough dirt to get me filthy frequently

    Seemed like it.

    I have heard it described as "The River that flows upside down". But then, again our River Torrens ain't like a Chlorinated Swiming Pool either.

    It is more of a Lake, as it has a concrete Weir at the outlet end where it's depth is supposed to reach through to Portugal.
