Went up the Dandenong Ranges today with a friend.

#Australia #DandenongRanges

Have got some blogging done (at https://politicalmusingsofkayleen.blogspot.com/2023/03/on-march-by-far-right-wing-extremists.html?m=1 and https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/2023/03/post-no-2396-war-of-worlds-aka-great.html?m=1 ), so am celebrating by posting this photo taken near One Tree Hill in Corhanwarrabul, also known as the Dandenong Ranges - taken last century. #Corhanwarrabul #DandenongRanges

So far the birb assortment at the new spread in Gembrook is encouraging.
First heard: Yellow-tailed black cockatoo
First seen: Yellow-tailed black cockatoo

Today: YTB (2), Gang-gangs (4), Rosellas (crimson & eastern)(lots), Sulphur-crested cockatoos (plague), King parrots (see Sulphur-crested), galahs (a multitude)

Going to be good.

Caught this juve Male king parrot gorging on a tree fruits in the back yard. Who’s going to be a handsom chap then?

Favourite images of 2022: Male Superb lyrebird not quite in full show mode but the featherage is still very impressive. The sound show is even more superb. Dandenong Ranges, Kallista.

Well, it’s happened - I’ve just launched Honeybee Content + SEO @ honeybeecontentseo.com 🐝 I’m looking to build a client base around #Melbourne, especially #SouthEastMelbourne and the #DandenongRanges. If you want high quality, ethical #LinkBuilding, website #content or #SEO strategies including #GoogleMyBusiness and #Keywords with a #local focus, I’m your gal!

Now that I've got some free time on my hands at work, I might as well as do the whole hashtag thing to get things started.

I play the #bassguitar , I'm really into #punkrock and #heavymetal (but I refuse to consider myself a metalhead), and I love a good #coffee (why I didn't hashtag this earlier, I'll never know). One of the reasons why I love #Nagasaki is that it's a small, walkable city like #Melbourne, but at the same time, the surrounding mountains can make several suburbs look as though I'm in the #DandenongRanges .

Sports-wise, I do follow a couple of teams. With #afl ( #AussieRules to be clear), I've been supporting St Kilda ever since I moved to Australia in 2004. As for soccer, I support both #MelbourneVictory and #celticfc .

Ok, definitely more than just a couple of teams.

I'm not much of an anime (or manga) fan now as I was in my early 20s, but there are some that I'll happily recommend. Recommendations include "Yuri on Ice", "Kuroko's Basketball", " #MyDressUpDarling ", "Free!" (with the exclamation mark), and "Super Cub". I'm also a slightly-competitive casual player of rhythm games like #Bandori and #D4DJ.

Oh, and last, but not least, I'm also a language #teacher . I'm qualified to teach beginner-level Italian and EAL (English as an Additional Language) at the lower secondary grade in my home state of Victoria, and I'm currently helping to teach English at three public schools in Nagasaki City.

That's about it for now, I guess.
