As a Victorian who has recently returned to the state, I'd love to see the Victorian faunal emblem get the volunteer support it needs. #NationalVolunteerWeek

What does it mean to be a Victorian?
This #NationalVolunteerWeek, we're helping Friends of the Helmeted Honeyeater celebrate & support the work of their volunteers to save Victoria's precious bird emblem.

First time out collecting data for my new @BushHeritageAus job and I was lucky enough to see some great #birds. I think I am going to like my new field sites a lot. #WildOz

A Diamond Firetail peers at me from the top of a dead branch.

We recently went to check out Morialta’s Cunningham’s #Skink population. These beauties have so much character. #herping #lizard #WildOz #RememberTheWild
