#BookSnapSunday – Adventuring with dogs

https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Ottxpg97z/ This weeks book snap, a delightful book about the nomad lifestyle with four dogs in tow. Really enjoying reading Jackie's account of exploring Romania in a caravan with four cavapoos. Would love to follow in Jackie's footsteps, one day maybe. This is a great read, especially if you are planning a trip to the … Continue reading #BookSnapSunday – Adventuring with dogs

Another Saturday morning planting trees, is there any better way to start the weekend. #WildernessSocietyToowoomba #MovementForLife #TreePlanting
Just a random black swan pic from the trip home. We have to have regular stops for the car sick princess Ada, so stopped at his rec area, lots of bird life. #BlackSwan #QLD #bird
Must head back to civilization 😒. Love the stark beauty of sea washed timber, seeing more and more casuarinas tumbled by encroaching high tides. Theodolite has a magical beauty and pulses with life, will miss these walks but must go back to work. #nature #NatureWriting #TheodoliteCreek #Woodgate
Whatcha reading? Even the blue faced honey eaters think I should be reading. Started #DaveGoulson #SilentEarth have you noticed a decline in bugs? Well you are not alone. Goulson is a great writer and a leading entomologist, I always think of him as the bee man but this book is a timely warning. Even though I have finished my #5in50ReadingChallenge for #BrothersnBooks this an extra read check out the world's coolest readathon @brothersnbooks #NatureWriting #NatureReading #BooksAndCoffee #Bookstagram #Books #BooksAndNature
Just another perfect #Woodgate photo, days of swimming/floating, sleeping don't even have the energy to read, just keep falling asleep every time I pick up a book.
Ada and I are at our happy place swims twice a day for me and all digging, fish herding Ada can manage. #Woodgate #beach #RescueDogsofInstagram #RescueDogs #DogsAndBeach
How gorgeous is #LaurelBankPark at the moment, enjoying the pretty gardens like many others at the moment. Seemed a nice background for my current read #TapastriesOfLife by #AnneSverdrup-Thygeson #NatureWriting #NatureReading #Books #Bookstagram #toowoombacarnivalofflowers #Toowoomba #PrettyGardens
Just a quick Insta of book 4 for the #5in50ReadingChallenge for #BrothersnBooks. I had this one sitting around for awhile, an animal memoir by biologist Stacey O'Brien about the barn owl she raised and kept, he was unsuitable for release due to nerve damage in a wing. Spending a lifetime around animals and nature I am never surprised by their emotional complexity but often surprised by human ignorance. Stacey kept Wesley secret because she was afraid misguided animal activists would try and take him and release him, while not ideal, he does have a quality life despite being in captivity with absolute devotion from Stacey. A quick, enjoyable read and I learnt a bit about barn owls, a beautiful species. The book behind is October October with the beautiful cover illustration by #AngelaHarding of an owl. #Books #NatureWriting #NatureReading #Bookstagram #BooksAndCoffee
Just some current nature reads awaiting my attention. #TapestriesOfLife is next up because it is my 5th book in the #5in50ReadingChallenge for #BrothersnBooks but I can't wait to read #DaveGoulson 's new book #SilentEarth averting the insect apocalypse. #Bewilderment is #RichardPowers first novel since the remarkable #TheOverstory and the #RachelCarson is a classic I have not previously read; #TheEdgeOfTheSea saving that one for an upcoming weekend at the beach. #NatureWriting #NatureReading #Books #Bookstagram
