The riots aren’t about Zuma anymore. They are rooted in joblessness and inequality - which, ironically became far worse under Zuma’s economic carnage and corrupt, self-serving rule. #ZumaUnrest

Really proud of my little bees. They’ve produced some honey I’m thrilled with. It’s a bio-active Leptospermum - a native manuka. And it’s delicious. We’re @mounthenryhoney on the insta. This, and our four other varieties, are available online. https://t.co/UTz3UhSJlk

#SeeWhatYouMadeMeDo on @SBS tonight - as devastating as it is important... The most important television viewing this year, and in my mind, ever. 💔 #domesticviolence

PSA: My Octopus Teacher is a must watch documentary on Netflix Australia. Wow. Beautiful, evocative and heartfelt. I found it especially moving as my dad learnt to dive in those beautiful Capetown kelp forests.

If you have Netflix do yourself a favour and watch the 2016 documentary, 13th. “Filmmaker Ava DuVernay explores the history of racial inequality in the United States, focusing on the fact that the nation's prisons are disproportionately filled with African-Americans.”

Gosh I was lucky to be on this trip, employed by Syd Uni to document the DERG’s incredible work. The red sand got under my skin & I recall meeting my future ABC Western QLD colleagues in Bedourie on the way out. Little did I know I’d be back 18 months later to live in Longreach!
10 years ago today 14 people set off on the three-day drive from @Sydney_Science to the #SimpsonDesert, for three weeks' #fieldwork with the Desert Ecology Research Group. That was their 20th year studying of the effects of feral predators (and much more) on biodiversity. #WildOz

Everyone should listen to Fran Kelly’s @RNBreakfast interview with the mother of the 16 year old boy arrested with severe force in Sydney earlier this week.

When 28 bearded men from Mullumbimby with a love of vodka and Russian folk music came together, something strangely wonderful happened 🧔🎶 #AustralianStory #Dustyesky @dustyeskychoir

Sometimes we get lucky with native flowerings. Last summer was a bumper season for Grey gum and Bursaria (Blackthorn). We have a limited amount of this syrup-like in taste & texture variety and it’s YUM! #mounthenryhoney
I intend to jar the last of my grey gum-Bursaria mix of honey from February. It’s a tasty honey with a slightly thinner consistency that’s pretty delish! If you’re not in WA or Tassie and are interested in getting some, jump on the website! https://t.co/2D1skwabPU

The High Court of Australia has today issued its decision on the case involving Cardinal George Pell. I do not intend to comment on that judgement. But I do wish to address the impact on our community.
