Had a great time chasing birds with my 10yr old Zach this morning… This is one of mine but he’s getting better (not buying him a mirrorless just yet haha)

After a long day, month and year, i had a rum a couple of beers and signed up for something.

I’ll be knocking out dad bod push ups this month, and linked up to lifeline, so if you feel the need to sponsor or donate the link is in my bio or reels

Let’s do this 💪

I encourage all banter on form in the comments…

Bee kisses….

Maybe not what it seems… watch the video and you’ll witness it’s not a kiss but more likely a competitive approach by the introduced feral European bee to the slightly smaller native bee in order to poach the pollen.

This is the first native bee we have documented on our native verge and super excited to ID it, if you or anyone has some bee skills reach out!

My favourite place not in Australia but in Australia…

Big fire up at Gnagara today, we were just passing by at the right time to show the kids the water bombers. Massive aerial effort from the team, hats off to the pilots involved both heli and planes, quite a few runs but they got the bush fire under control swiftly! Couldn’t see the ground support but I’m sure they were in the thick of it!

Who doesn’t love a delivery day!! Especially when Leofoto get those products out to you super fast!

A great solution to a common problem with long lens feet. I run and gun a fair bit these days and switch between monopod gimbal heads to tripods and stabilisers and the CF-07 replacement foot for the Canon 24-105 F2.8L is a perfect for my needs. No longer stressing about finding double bolts to ensure a stable plate connection!

Nice work 🤙
