I have a very large back yard, and even with a riding lawn mower it takes a almost an hour to mow on a goood day. Since I'll be leaving for Marine boot camp soon, I want to plant some trees to cover space so its easier for my mom to take care of the yard. I recent found a place that will sell African Tulip Trees. They grow quickly, but I'm not sure if planting something refered to as an invasive species is a good idea. Does anyone have any in their yards that could tell me if its a good idea or not?
Answer
I have planted many over the years with out a problem of seeds germinating underneath. Its a beautiful tree, but it can drop alot of leaves. They are listed as an invasive species in Queensland and Sri Lanka, meaning you will not get approval to plant them if asking permission first. The seedlings are easy to spot and remove from the yard. Here is a link about it.

Hi.
I am a studying photographer and I have always been interested in photography for wildlife. To be able to take great photos, I will need to set goals for capturing the wildlife. To start out I will need to know the whereabouts. I am currently trying to research about the Apostlebirds(Grey Jumper). Is there anyone that knows if these birds live in Queensland? Any other information about these birds would be helpful too. e.g. bait. Thankyou.
Answer
LOL... you don't need bait for apostle birds. They're not bothered by humans at all! We recently did a Qld outback trips and there were squillions of them at Carnarvon Gorge in the camp grounds. The staff at the Takaraka camp ground were also very knowledgeable about them. There were lots in the Gaske's fossicking area in Chinchilla. And at Mt Surprise in the north there was a little place that had snakes. The guy let my kids hold some of them, but when you put them on the ground the apostle birds would come down, stand in a circle around the snake and squawk away. Those are the 3 main encounters that stick in my head, they're everywhere out there though. If you're eating a sandwich, the birds will come. They're amazing little critters - good luck with the photography!
