The inaugural Tourism Australia G'day Stories media event was a privilege to be part of. You might spot us in a drone shot! 🔭✨️

We had a wild family of Boobook Owls living at home from Christmas until Valentine's. Wayne "Nugget" gave them all the space, but they quickly became friends while watering the garden at dusk each night.

When the babies grew bigger and left, Wayne was sad. So I bought him a replacement from Serenity garden centre ~ but it's not quite the same without their shrills and inquisitive ways.

✨️ Nature is incredible!

Forgive the poor quality videos at times ~ it's just unbelievable to see these birds in the daylight!

This is a major reason for the very existence of the River Murray International Dark Sky Reserve to protect habitats for our nocturnal species.

On our River Murray Dark Sky Tours we see and hear Owls often. I hope these fellas come back to nest next year!

This IWD we're showcasing the transformation of Bessy the SKYLINK bus! 💫

This astronomical project highlights the epic problem solving, persistence and precision by the brilliance of Phillippa at the beginning of 2026.

A solo wonder woman local business owner & operator, who did everything ~ creative design AND installation!

Please send more love her way by jumping onto her page Sticky Pixels and drop her a line if you have any signage needs! And more love our way by jumping onto Bessy 🫶

And keep an eye on our Stories later today to see behind the scenes and a hilarious photo shoot blooper.

This is not a sponsored ad, I'm just jumping for joy! The more people who see the Dark Sky, the more people will want to protect it.

With the greatest of thanks to Women in Innovation + sponsors of the crowd funded Fearless Females Award grant of 2025.

Phillippa burst into tears as Bessy the SKYLINK bus left the Sticky Pixels shed after her astronomical colour space transformation!

The transformation of Bessy the SKYLINK bus has been astronomical! 🌙 Many moons in the making by two South Australian Fearless Females ~ the brilliant Phillippa from Sticky Pixels and Kel !

Made possible by the Women in Innovation Fearless Females award of 2025 💫

Whooaaa! 🤸‍♀️ We adored hosting Sputnik from ABC Radio Adelaide ~ and adored he joined as a customer, not a sponsored segment! 🙏

Our 1st marriage proposal! 🫶 The Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse event this week saw 20 brilliant minded individuals sign up for a spectacle like no other we've seen before.

⚙️ We peacefully cruised on board the historic PW Mayflower with fabulous Explore Mid Murray volunteers at the helm, from Mannum to Greenings Landing.

🦅 The scene was set amongst stunning birdlife, who seemingly knew something was up! Maybe it was the presence of Sputnik
who had brilliantly alerted SA on the ABC airwaves to the magical night we had prepped for.

✨️ The hardworking team at Walker Flat Shop & Walker Flat Riverside Cafe rolled out a traditional Aussie BBQ as the magical golden hour kissed the limestone cliffs ~ unbelievable timing!

🦇 We quietly wheeled into Ted's Astronomy Site just as the moon rose above the Mallee trees, the boobooks, bats and crickets nestled in.

🩶 As the Earth's shadow marched across the face of the moon, the depth of the colour represented all the sunsets and sunrises around the world.

✨️The stars that were hidden in the bright moonlight earlier in the night, sparkled in the darkened sky and the Summer Milky Way beamed spectacularly right above us.

🔭 Aside from the magical moon, highlights were seeing Jupiter and the Jewel Box through the telescope... 🔭

AND {in the last photo} jewels of another kind for Diane and Alex as they affirmed their love with our 1st romantic marriage proposal onsite, 💍 unbeknownst to the rest of the crew until we stopped on the roadside halfway home on the clifftop to witness the end of the Eclipse.

A night to treasure forever.

Kel, Geoff and team xx

On a weekly basis, we're asked to donate. Here's a little spotlight on one we have supported since the beginning. ✨️

The Student Representative Council (SRC) of the highly regarded Mypolonga Primary School, are transported in our to the much anticipated school disco. 🚌

We're told this privileged ride is a leading carrot for students putting their hand up for the leadership role at the beginning of the school year.....
... and that right there makes it a no-brainer for us to say yes. It's a small but mighty contribution to the upcoming strength of our local community.

🫶 By the looks on their faces, you'll see why this standing booking is non-negotiable in our calendar.

Their disco dress theme is different each time. This year was 'Anything Goes'. 🌎 It's perhaps a worthy theme for the rest of us to try and adopt a chilled out approach to the remainder of 2026.
