A guest on #Darumbal land, but raised in the heart of #Wiradjuri land.

Have invested time in #PapuaNewGuinea and #Fiji and have been fortunate to forge some lifeshaping relationships from both. Now however not really not feeling as if I have a fixed address....

Naively frustrated that people can't just be a little nicer....

In allotment news I just sat on the only squash plant that was absolutely thriving and not shredded by this year's epic slugmageddon. Here are some things I did not sit on.

Edit: there is a frog in those self seeded wild flowers (you might think of them as 'weeds' but you'd be wrong)

Gooseberries fattening up nicely
View over elephant garlic a lot of self seeders including champion and forget me not, some tall purple alliums, potato bed, some newly prepped manured beds (ready for netting and brassicas), and berry bushes at the back. There is a wood chip path and a red watering can.

@amberfirefly I didn't realise (never really thought much about it!) but my slugs are your slugs are probably very different!

After having a look into it, I have https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laevicaulis_alte which are a particular tropical type. Some interesting characteristics.

@futurebird suggested iNaturalist as a way I could identify some ants (thanks!).... from there it was slugs and there I found the variations.
