Nothing but truffle.The snappy cold in Red Hill Nothing but truffle.The snappy cold in Red Hill doesn't always get the thanks it deserves. For starters it's a good excuse for a night in front of the fire.🍷🔥 But it's also the perfect environment for growing the rare and elusive truffle.As far as truffle growing goes, chilly weather is only a start. The right soil, trees, spores and no shortage of other elements are needed to get these fungal delights materialising underground...
Kangaroos with a taste for pinot noir.If you’r Kangaroos with a taste for pinot noir.If you’re lucky enough when you visit @yabby_lake, you might spot a kangaroo between the vines.Kangaroos are not usually associated with vineyards, but apparently wine and kangaroos cohabit very comfortably. They don’t often eat the grapes as they prefer the grass that grows between the vines.
The Victorian Government has announced plans to de The Victorian Government has announced plans to demolish 180 metres of the historic Flinders Pier.The pier is one of the oldest in Victoria, first built in 1864. Over the intervening years, the pier has been re-aligned and had pylons and treads replaced to keep it safe and operational. However, during the past five years, the Government has allowed the pier to fall into disrepair due to lack of maintenance. A substantial section is now closed to the public. The water beneath the pier is home to the endangered Weedy Sea Dragon which feeds off coral that has attached to the wooden pylons. The Weedy Sea Dragon attracts divers and researchers from around the world. In his BBC documentary filmed at Flinders, Sir David Attenborough once observed that of all the creatures in the shallows of Southern Australia, "none compare to the beauty of the weedy sea dragon". Furthermore, while the Minister, Hon Melissa Horne has announced the demolition of the first 180 metres of the pier, her department is evaluating options for a concrete boat ramp to facilitate jet skis and power boats in the shallow waters where the weedy sea dragon currently feeds. Please help the Flinders Community Association save the timber Flinders Pier for its social and historic relevance to the early settlers of the Mornington Peninsula; ensure the pier and the surrounding waters continue to provide a safe harbour for the weedy sea dragon to survive and prosper; and see the historic timber pier restored for the safe enjoyment of future Victorians.
