Swamp Paperbark is one of the most beautiful ecosystems in #Tasmania and we are just embarking on a new PhD by Iona to help better understand and conserve this habitat. Photos from our first field outing!

Winter evening spring tide fishing is back on the menu in our #saltmarsh restoration site near Hobart, and also on the menu is counting baby flounders, and fine dining.

Gutted by the passing of dear friend, philosopher and guide Jamie Kirkpatrick. He personified geography and was a rare Renaissance Man in the age of specialisation. Grateful to him for introducing me to saltmarshes & much else. Photo Iona from recent field trip. ❤️

My favourite Arctic migratory shorebird, the demure Grey Plover, has been uplisted from "least concern" to "vulnerable" by Birdlife International in response to rapid population declines (30-49% ! ) over three generations through "a myriad of plausible threats". #FlightLines

The old man and the book. Elated to complete The Ancients and have it out in the wild. Deep bow to Bob Brown for his launch, thanks to Nicholas Shakespeare and Jonathan Green for their endorsements, to Allen & Unwin, to Fullers Bookshop, and all who helped make it.

These tiny sea stars (Parvulastra vivipara) don't get much larger than what you see here — and there's something else incredibly special about them. 🧵 ⤵️ 📷 vishnuprahalad on iNaturalist 📍 Australia 🔗: inaturalist.org/observations/2… #ObservationOfTheDay
