Rainbow Bee-eater. Gorgeous little birds! 😊❤️ Been craning my neck around in the bushland like a madman the past few weeks trying to spot them and got lucky yesterday. They like to come out close to sunset time, it seems.

My favourite flower, the one I have tattooed on my thigh, is that of the Boolkala (Firewood Banksia) tree. It is currently in bloom in Perth. I saw these ones at the local bushland reserve.

Belmont probably has an existing Nyoongar name but if not, I think it should be Boolkalap "The Place of the Banksias"! 😃

It was a blazing hot day today. I checked out Mettam's Pool near Trigg with family. I remember coming to this place many years ago to grab abalone with family. It's a gorgeous relatively obscure spot. I definitely recommend it. I would however suggest newcomers to just hang out in the pool. The reefs and waves elsewhere can be a bit hectic.

I've been told that this a Burton's Legless Lizard, not a snake.

You can tell by its pointy face. Still startled me when I encountered it in the local bushland.

Some gorgeous flowers still in bloom at the local bushland reserve. Not sure what these are called though.

Day 93 (I missed yesterday) and 94 of 100 Day Challenge

Nyoongar word of the day

DOOKERNINY, present tense of Dookern: Cooking

KAALANG: Hot

Recently I've been a little lazy and sad sack, eating lots of junk food or instant shit. It felt good to actually do some home DOOKERNINY and treat myself to a proper KAALANG meal

YALKARANGINY: Blossoming

Was visiting Grandma and noticed all the beautiful Djet (flowers) YALKARANGINY in her garden. Such gorgeous bright vibrant colours! 😍

Day 91 of 100 Day Challenge

Nyoongar word of the day

BENANG: Tomorrow

I have the very bad lazy habit of leaving things that should be done yeyi (now), kedala (today) for BENANG. It's something I try to fix in myself. On the other hand, one must also be able to see BENANG positively, a potential fresh start. A chance to make things better. 😊

Day 90 of 100 Day Challenge (apologies for lateness)

Nyoongar word of the day

WOONANGA: Peaceful

I've been able to sort out my financial situation for the foreseeable future, I feel far less anxiety and pressure. I feel WOONANGA for the first time in weeks, maybe months.

Day 89 of 100 Day Challenge

Nyoongar word of the day

MOYIRAN: Old man/Grandfather

One of the biggest regrets in my life was not getting to know my MOYIRAN, A Gong as I called him in Teochew, a lot more while he was still alive. Now all I have left are his photos, his books and his writings. I guess that will have to be enough.

Day 87 of 100 Day Challenge

Nyoongar word of the day

BARN: Walk

Everyday, I try to go for a BARN with Dad and Lucky, our dwert 🐺. There's a lovely bit of bushland that's just 2 min away from a house that we'll go to often.
