The past few days have been so action-packed I haven’t had time for updates. For now, I’ll just leave this “little” hint here #GhostNets #ALDFG #EsperanceTjaltjraak #IndigenousRangers #BeachCleanup #MarineDebris #ArtFromTrash @AdriftLab

Another day bashing through extremely dense Melaleuca in search of #malleefowl with #EsperanceTjaltjraak #IndigenousRangers. After getting whipped in the face by branches for 5 hrs, Im not able to include any quotes from the team because they all included curse words 🤬 (and a lot of grunting!). Good thing no one needed to record the “sounds of the bush” 🤣🤣🤣 And no, we didn’t see any birds 🙄 Thankfully, these hard-earned data are part of a new MSc #student #research project in collaboration with #RMIT University - stay tuned for exciting updates!

Was fortunate to spend my Monday building a #CulturalHeritage and #ThreatenedSpecies protection fence alongside this supportive, funny, motivated, hard-working #IndigenousRanger crew. Today was…magic 🖤💛♥️ #EsperanceTjaltjraak #RespectYourElders #ProtectWhatYouLove #NativeTitle @AdriftLab

BIG CONGRATS to #AdriftLab MSc candidate Meg who completed her final seminar on #microplastics in #ports yesterday 🥳. Over the past 9 months, she did an amazing job trialing methods to find one that actually works for #sediments (this was a huge achievement in its own right and the lessons learned will greatly benefit the broader #plastics community) 👏
