Mt Buller's winter in Autumn...

And now Mt Buller adds to Mt Hotham's overnight of snow...
And this is autumn???
Just checked the temperature on my computer...13°C... Nope...Didn't reach the predicted 15°C on my peninsula. It's mid-afternoon + the temperature is bound to turn around and go down... https://t.co/p1SfFQRdz2

official rise of indigenous names...

Indeed, a gorgeous goanna...
More 'gorgeous' still, for me, is the official rise of indigenous names for places, rivers+even landmarks e.g. opening June, the Yawa Aquatic Centre at Rosebud.

Naree is part of the traditional Country of the Budjiti people. It's a former pastoral property found in one of the least disturbed parts of the Murray-Darling Basin in north-western NSW. It lies in the Mulga Lands bioregion, 150km north-west of Bourke, on the Cuttaburra Channels that connect the Paroo and Warrego rivers. Its southern boundary is the Cuttaburra Creek, and Yantabulla Swamp adjoins the property to the west... Naree helps protect nationally significant, arid-zone ephemeral wetlands...Naree Station Reserve

winter in autumn...

It's still only autumn...
But the predicted 15degrees is still elusive (a mere 12 late morning on my peninsula)...
And Mt Hotham recorded snow last night...????
This is going to be a long and icy winter methinks... https://t.co/GP6jS3xCFo

Saturday reflection...

My Saturdays (+ drifting into Sundays) tend to be marked as impulse days...a major impulse or a barely noticeable impulse... Apart from Saturday morning supermarket shopping, nothing is tightly pre-planned and there are plenty of open spaces for 'something' or merely 'nothing'... https://t.co/hp79YqWO3R
