Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

I was reading somewhere a few months ago that, at least the Chinese investment side, is a Chinese government sponsored subversion tactic being used to slowly take over AU so it can be incorporated into China within this century. I can't remember exactly where I read it, but the article was saying that a Chinese person living in AU simply has to ask the Chinese government for X amount of $'s when they're looking at property to buy, and they'll almost always be given the full amount for nothing (other than loyalty to the Chinese communist party, of course).

Scary stuff. Good luck, GB. I hope you're busy with your island hopping when the final conversion takes place. :P

I’ll find that item for you. I saw something too.

The Chinese do a lot of business with Australia,mainly mineral resources they need to industrialise.
Australia always have a large Asian population-Chinese from HK,Vietnamese ,then comes the mainland Chinese/
It is hard to immigrate to US,Canada and Australia become 2 popular countries to settle.
When the Chinese from China want to diversify their wealth or hide their wealth,they buy real estate in US,Canada and Australia.
I have never heard of China wanting to t ake over Australia,it must be something fabricated by CIA,once they did a study and said China would be broken up ?
China does have problems with its minority races like the UIGHUR and Mongolians and Tibetans,but the study stated the Hans populated provinces would be separated ,which is absurd.
If anyone should have and would have taken over Australia back in early 20th century would be the Japanese,the reason they invaded China is the resources in Manchuria and the land ,but Australia back then was part of British Commonwealth and sparsely populated,the British used to send prisoners there !
Now you cant just take over a country,unless the folks decide to join which is what the Chinese govt is hoping with Taiwan.
Come to think of it,after WWII,the Western powers suggested 2 places for the jews to establish a nation state-Palestine or West Africa,they should offer Australia and we would no have all these Middle East conflicts.
The Hamids and others have restocked their rockets after shooting 700 of them into Israel not t oo long ago !
I wonder if they need AMZN FBA?

YESTERday I found a dead hummingbird in my backyard,I do have hummingbirds and they serve as alarm clock in the morning,but a dead bird??
I just caught a baby frog,and have it covered with clear see thru dome shaped lid,the kind they keep the rotisserie chicken you see in the supermarket,should I release it?
We use to see many when it rains,now it is rare to see them,the one big green one I released in my backyard is alive and well and croaking as we have rain !

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

can you flip the frog on ebay or get him a stealth account on az?

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

I just freed it,it is very small,one inch?
but I never see any pond with tadpoles?

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

As a matter of interest, Australia is[ STILL A MEMBER of the British Commonwealth.

False news again.

:au:

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

Might as well release and see how it goes

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

sorry it is not hummingbird,it is mocking bird,they wake me up every morning like alarm clock.

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

Makes more sense. The hummingbirds we have don't make any noise, haha.

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

Good news,the pair Barns Sparrows which built a nest above my front door are back,checking the nest hundred times a day?
but not laying yet?

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

Mating season might have passed

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

It is a pair,but why keep checking the nest when they dont have any eggs to lay?

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

UPDATE: I was wrong about the bird in my yard abandoning her nest.

She did exactly what somebody in this thread said. She laid eggs in there and then left for a few weeks. We started hearing baby bird chirps in the house about a week ago.. so they've been born now. Now the momma bird brings food to the nest 10x a day. Really cool to watch.

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

Have you checked to see if there's any eggs in there?

Or maybe they're just adding onto the nest.

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

GOOD question,they are not visiting the nest to drop more eggs,they dont stay or sit in the nest.they just glide over it.
I cant see what is in the nest unless I attach a mirror on a long pole.
I hope they are not the same parents like 2 years ago,a pair of barn swallows/sparrows built the same kind of nest and there were 2 chicks inside the nest.
One day I saw many swallows flying around,I thought the chicks have left the nest so I start hosing down the nest,then I heard the parents crying really loud , 2 chicks fell on the ground,one hid in the bush ,the other just hide by a large plant,later it must be the parents calling,it came and sat on the lawn with its parents circling it.
It cant fly ,the next morning I saw it was still there and then the lawn man came to mown lawn and I cant find it anymore,I hope both chicks survive.
I understand birds have memory,if this is the same pair,they must remember the last episode?
Now I know better,I will just leave them alone ,if there are eggs,one of them will be sitting on them soon.

Re: Live Frog in my backyard
 

It has been raining lately but I have not heard from my frog,it may have left for the receiving pond behind me or ?? greener pasture.
