You can even give us a pat and we promise not to bite - unless you are a big dog in which case Juliet might snap. -Indiana Jones and Juliet🐶🐶

What we do for an iced coffee… venture out in #heatwave temperatures to bites on bonwick in #Fawkner. Temperature check: 39.1C, 12% humidity In the shade at 1.40pm.
Global warming is driving earlier, more frequent and hotter #heatwaves. Stay hydrated💦 and stay cool. 😎
The sparrows on Bonwick are jumping around and panting to keep cool.
The concrete and asphalt paths are just too hot for walkies. 🐾🐾
Leave some water out in your gardens for wildlife. 🦜

Look what we saw in the small dog park of Moomba Park in #Fawkner. A pair of New Holland Honeyeaters were on the fence and visiting some of the bushes.

Have we crossed over into a fairy world? What is the elf doing? How did the dog get up there? When do we get our Fairy Wings?

“At 12.30pm it’s 33.5C 25% humidity at the Bites on Bonwick cafe in #Fawkner. Dad decided to have an early brunch today before it gets too hot. After this we are putting out our washing and enjoying the air-con during today’s heat in the first true 3 day #heatwave of Melbourne summer.” -Juliet 🐶🐶

Is it hot right now for the #melbournecup ? Hell yeah!
We measured 34.5C at 2.30pm in #Fawkner .
“Today's maximum temperature so far is 32.7°C, and the minimum overnight was 15°C. The average of the two is 23.85 °C , which is hotter than 98% of daily average temperatures at Melbourne (Laverton) for this time of year over the period 1943–2021. The really hot and cold days (top and bottom 5%, respectively) are outside the dotted lines.”

The ClimateAction Merribek stall was one of a few stalls with zero #TransportEmissions at the Fawkner Festa today, transporting stall contents by bicycle trailer. @MerribekBUG we’re also zero emissions.
We asked people to sign Bushfire Survivors for Climate Action online petition
https://www.bushfiresurvivors.org/petition-pauseapprovalsepa
, and a postcard for an enhanced water trigger in environmental laws.

Sacred Kingfisher seen on a bird survey at Merri Creek in #Fawkner
Sacred #Kingfishers visit #MerriCreek in the #Wurundjeri seasons of Porneet- Buath Garru (Sept to Dec) after their long journey from #Indonesia.
Happy to say a bus shelter installed at #CampbellfieldPlaza bus terminus for the 530 bus that goes from Coburg servicing #Fawkner residents. It was being used too with a woman waiting while light rain ocurred. I made representations to my local Broadmeadows MP for this.
This is a small but valuable improvement providing shade during #extremeheat and shelter from rain. So important for a terminus bus stop.
