I have opened 50 registrations for the Elsica.Social instance. The site needs some further polish but is ready for you to explore. Elsica.Social is your cosy home in the fediverse with a mild thematic focus on #botany, #nature, #wildlife, #horticulture, #bio and #earth#sciences, nature #photography, #exploring and #travel. If you know Latin names of random #plants, get up at 3 a.m. to walk into remote valleys to take #landscape#photos, spend all day in your #garden, like reading #science books or watching the latest #documentary about the #birds of Patagonia, you will feel at home here.
My only requests? Don't be an idiot, drop the attitude, don't be a social media sheep and do everything everyone else does... but above all... Just. Be. You.
During the winter season I occasionally go off the beaten path exploring the woods nearby.
When I found this pedal tractor in the woods, I had flashbacks to the time when I used to ride on the these that was passed down from the family. It makes me wonder what life was back then where I found this
I had one of these growing up. Mine was green like the John Deere. Did you have one growing up?
From time to time I will go exploring in the woods.
I tend to find a lot of glass that is mostly mason jars and older version of the coke bottles. Once in a while I will find a oil can where I can see the label pretty good. This particular was lying next to some old machinery.
Good morning tooting friends. Lovely day yesterday wandering Yarrawongas foreshore & main streets with my friend. We were trying to find somewhere for lunch & came across a tiny gated alley way with sign out front advertising homemade foods, so down we went & there was a lovely grassed area with tables & chairs, a few small raised garden beds & a little building where the food was prepared & sold & it was just lovely. I had house made tomato soup with toast & my friend had pumpkin risotto. Absolutely delicious & reasonably priced. Hidden gem. Obviously popular with locals as within half an hour of arriving there the place was full. #Holiday#Exploring
On Organicmaps, we stumbled upon a sign for an attraction that claimed "stairs to the roof." We didn't trust that it would be remarkable, but it had to be checked out. In the middle of a bazaar, we turned into a stair hall and took the rusty stairs up until we really reached the roof. Wooow! This made my day! It was fantastic. The feeling while walking upstairs like it was the most normal thing, discovering a secret spot, the fact that nobody else was there, and the breathtaking view, so cool and really unforgettable! Even the snow-covered mountains visible on the horizon amazed me.
