Warm winter temperatures have triggered an early outbreak of pests at Sydney's Botanical Gardens, and ibis chicks are already in the hatching phase.

It's warm up my way today. This is the warmest July up here in 20 years.

I was planning on going on a overnight walk this weekend, planed to walk 20km along the beach today to camp, a perfect day, but insurance assessors mucked up my weekend. Instead it will be a day walk up to Mt Walsh tomorrow. I'm thinking about taking my dry baking kit and bake a cake.
