In the early tide of an Australian, Winters Samhuinn, I set out to rescape my front moon garden to become a herbal groundcover that will be a delight to walk barefoot on come spring...

There's currently a 10 month backlog of posts to be published across all of my websites including this one. The drop down tabs are also being updated along with links, so some links may not be current. As I go through editing links and loading up posts, these will be corrected. Permaculture notes and terms are also being added throughout for ease of use with Permaculture. As a qualified Permaculturist I'm also Vegan as my Ancestral Druidic line (Mothers side 'Castillo' castle adders) expects, so Permaculture reference will be laid out with this in mind. The seasonal almanac will also be added to within the context of the seasonal wheel/of the year as per my father's ancestral line of Witches, dictates. Wink from the Wics/Anglo sax/Germanic. Being a one person team, this will take me awhile on top of my practice, so thank you ahead of time for your patience.

Hope everyone is well, just a quick note to say posts will be starting up again with vlogs added here from throughout the year. I haven't been writing blogposts recently due to study/practice commitments and lack of time but I still have lots of photos to load for I have still been taking pics and doing projects. Every now and again I like to update the chapters in my respective blog sites and that time has arrived again.
​Meanwhile please bare with me as I rename shuffle and relink title pages.
Blessed be and Merrypart

Here are important extracts and links regarding the 

Do not confuse the Indian Myna with the Noisy Myna which is native with a light grey (not brown) body

Extract
'Often described as "flying rats", or the "cane toads of the sky", the Indian myna is considered one of world's 100 most invasive species.'


Extract -
'Indian Mynas cause significant environmental problems including:
Removing native parrots from nest boxes or tree hollows and even killing eggs and chicks
Killing small mammals and removing sugar gliders from tree hollows
Spreading diseases that affect native birds (e.g. avian malaria)
Damaging fruit, vegetable and cereal crops
Spreading weeds
Forming large noisy communal roosts in suburban areas
Causing dermatitis, allergies and asthma in people'

Extract 'The Common Myna was introduced into the cane fields of north-eastern Queensland in 1883, to combat insect pests, particularly plague locusts and cane beetles. Other releases occurred, and by the 1940s and 1950s it was established in many eastern metropolitan areas. Failed introductions were made at Launceston, Tasmania in 1900 and later in 1955. Some sightings have occurred since, however, probably of birds that have flown there from the mainland. In southern Asia Common Mynas are not generally considered pests, as flocks follow the plough to feast on the insects and grubs turned up with the soil. In Australia, however, their fruit-eating habits make them a pest of fruit trees, especially figs. Birds are also responsible for picking off seedlings in market gardens.'
