Only in Oz

Ozzie spiders categorised

I found one of these the other day – a hammerhead worm

That’s pretty. 🙂

Hmm, persecution to the point of extinction doesn’t seem too bad an idea after all.

pretty sure if I poke around a bit I’ll find a BBQ recipe to suit these fellows:

Giant Gippsland earthworms

Road riding at night is more interesting in North Queensland…

My home town in Oz. The golfers played on…

‘Nuff said.

so everything is deadly in oz.

Definitely don’t go in the showers

I think I’ve seen one of those, but I’m sure there’s bigger spiders out west around Camooweal.

They string a web of sorts between low bushes and trees to catch small birds, which is not fun when you find it when you’re belting around the scrub at dawn in a Mini Moke with the screen down. 🙂

Tiger snakes are grumpy sods as well. Only seen one admittedly. Fair few dugites on the Perth trails through.
That asbestos pic on the other hand is terrifying. Wittenoom is an eerie place. Fair bit of that at work at times. Looks pretty in the gorges mind.
