Highlights from a recent BTRW camera trap survey our team conducted. This camera isn't used in analysis but takes 10/10 pictures. Not pictured: the horses, pigs, hares, cats and dogs on our perimeter cams @Redfoxmeek @GeneEcoDeane @DingoResearch @ Lucy #btrw #WildOz #cameratraps

Worked pretty hard in the first half of this year finishing my Honours degree and it's all paid off! Now to write it up...

[Guy Ballard @DingoResearch]

[Abby Hine @enviroabby]

@DingoResearch @ERS_UNE Thanks Dr Ballard! Couldn't have done it without you and the team 🦘

[Abby Hine @enviroabby]

@DingoResearch @ERS_UNE Couldn't have done it without your help... Especially the brush cutting!

***PUFFINS HAVE LANDED*** it’s happened, Puffins have landed this morning on their breeding colonies on Isle of May for first time this year, having been away at sea since last August. Great news!

A great example of BOTH correct and incorrect #socialdistancing!

[Arik Hartmann @AmphibiArik]

Tree #frogs doing a very bad job at #SocialDistancing. Tree frogs congregate in hides like treeholes or under bark, but they will readily squeeze into pipes together. There are three species in here, can you spot them all?

The world can seem like a pretty grim place at the moment.... so here's a picture of the @UniNewEngland's resident kangaroos lounging about at their ease and without a care in the world.

did you know that a camera trap can moonlight as a literal trap for tree frogs (whistling tree frog?) #camerafacts #herpetology

in contrast to its name, egernia depressa brings only smiles
