Calling all bird spotters! 🐦👀 The Aussie Bird Count is back!

Grab the kids, head outside and spend 20 minutes seeing who you can spot – colourful parrots, cheeky magpies, noisy cockatoos or maybe a feathered visitor you haven’t seen before.

Count from your backyard, local park, the beach or anywhere you like, then submit your sightings to help BirdLife Australia learn more about the birds living around us.

🐦 19–25 October 2026

How many different birds can you spot in 20 minutes?

Find out how to register via our link in bio

💜 Adelaide’s prettiest springtime stroll?

The wisteria arbours at @botanicgardenssa shine in spring and are getting close to their purpley best.

Just comment: purple
We’ll send you all the details.

These shots were taken on Wednesday. The tunnel closest to Digger’s was a little bare, but the tunnel closest to the kiosk (where these photos were taken) was looking stunning, with cascades of purple flowers. 😍

The gardens are definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a free outing. We also spotted plenty of critters, including an eastern rosella, butterflies and a bunny. 🐰

Do you know a child (or adult!) who would love running through a wisteria tunnel? ...

So good to catch up with friends over good food and great coffee by @caparezzacinquecento.
Our friends from @adelaidehillsdairies brought along their new Swiss & Oats for us to try, and we all agreed they’re delicious!

If you haven’t come across Swiss & Oats yet, they combine creamy yoghurt with oats, chia seeds and real fruit, in an easy grab-and-go tub. And with school heading back, here’s a little tip – we think they’re the perfect addition to the school lunch box. We love that they’re made right here in SA using at least 95% Australian ingredients, including locally grown oats and easy to find at your local Foodland.

Big thanks to everyone today. 🫶🏻 ...

This Adelaide café has been doing brunch right for nearly a decade so it was about time we checked it out.
Go hungry… the servings here are BIG!

@ponyandcole delivers a menu of comfort food brunch made with local SA products.

It’s been awarded SA’s Best Casual Dining and Best Café Dining at the 2026 Restaurant & Catering Awards
(and Australia’s Best Breakfast Café at the 2023 Awards).

There’s great coffee roasted nearby from Patio, plus every other type of drink with iced drinks, juices, smoothies, milkshakes, Matcha, soft drinks, teas, beer and even cheeky cocktails.

What we tried and loved:

>Sweet Potato Rosti
>Honey Chipotle Chicken Burger
>Brisket Sando
>Steak Sandwich
>Kids’ pancakes with ice cream
(They also do a different special buttermilk pancake creation every month).

Drinks:
>Bueno Matcha
>Strangelove Yuzu Lemon
>Vanilla milkshake
>Biscoff Iced Latte

They’re well known by locals having been on Manton Street, Hindmarsh for nearly 10 years, but worth the drive too. We’ll definitely be back again!
