My grandfather was an entomologist,
My Nan was an avid bird watcher, my Dad and my Mum ran a native landscaping business, and a few other relatives were also into conservation and National Parks. So it’s kind of been in the blood.
But in particular I grew up bushwalking, looking for insects with my grandfather, looking at birds, marsupials, frogs, everything, and that's part of the journey.
I'm also an artist, so I actually enjoy drawing native animals and in particular birds, and I actually spent a lot of my time while working, taking advantage of some of the work I've done in Tasmania and in New South Wales to follow a lot of threatened species and threatened birds, photograph and paint them, so that's kind of where I've come from.
It's a lot of different angles, but I'm very passionate about birds in particular.

Sea-urchins have over-adapted to urbanisation and their proliferation is causing urchin 'barrens', areas devoid of kelp and seaweed. A project is tackling this by removing urchins, enabling areas of kelp forest to be restored
When a waves come in, there is an enormous amount of energy, but it loses that energy as it sweeps up the beach, dropping heavier particles first and then dropping the finer particles of sand.
