WUWT reader David Summers sends this photo along taken a few days ago in 2007 in Australia from a colleague that “returned there for the summer”. I thought it might make a fun photo caption exercise.
Note: This photo as represented to me in email, was supposedly recent.
Thanks to alert WUWT reader “snow captain of queanbeyan” obviously now that is not the case. So much for trusting friendly emails from people. The photo was originally taken in 2007 and you can see the details here.
Still, as originally intended, feel free to make a fun photo caption.
“At least all this ice will hold the tundra down…”
Another pointless Government-built fence!
Stunned by his shocking loss in the district boxing finals Elvis vowed to consult Tao mystics and announced a self-imposed exile to the most remote point in the compound. “Plus,” Elvis said with a wink: “a mate gave me 40 bucks to take a dive.”
I must have made a wrong turn somewhere!
“First they ‘saved’ the Polar Bears, and I did nothing….”
“I’m in ur outback, challenging ur climate perceptionz.”
Gidday Anthony, just taking this opportunity to let you know that the ACT (Canberra) Commissioner for Sustainability and the Environment, has spoken to our BoM over the galloping urbanization around the Canberra Airport weather instruments.
Somebody doing your work for you downunder.

Now I understand why they want to eat us rather than beef critters, my footprint is huge with this global warming all over the ground.

This is the wallaby that escaped in Eastern Ontario, just South of Ottawa this year?

Still beats living in Winnipeg….
If I had skates I could join me mates down at the billabong. Hansen’s providing the hockey stick and we could use Al as the hockey puck!
Why yes, I am a Wallabrrrr

I must have made a wrong turn somewhere!
Yeah, should haved turned left at Albuquerque!
Once a jolly swagman sat beside the billabong,
Under the shade of a coulibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and he waited till his billy boiled:
Chorus:
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
These dud carbon credits, these dud carbon credits
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
And he sang as he watched and he waited till his billy boiled,
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
2. Down came a jumbuck to drink beside the billabong
Up jumped the swagman and seized him with glee
And he sang as he tucked the jumbuck in his tuckerbag
Chorus:
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
These dud carbon credits, these dud carbon credits
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
And he sang as he tucked the jumbuck in his tuckerbag
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
3. Down came the stockman, riding on his thoroughbred,
Down came the troopers, one, two, three.
“Where’s that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tuckerbag?
Chorus:
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
These dud carbon credits, these dud carbon credits
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
“Where’s that jolly jumbuck you’ve got in your tuckerbag?
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
4. Up jumped the swagman and plunged into the billabong,
“You’ll never catch me alive,” cried he
And his ghost may be heard as you ride beside the billabong,
Chorus:
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
These dud carbon credits, these dud carbon credits
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
And his ghost may be heard as you ride beside the billabong,
Who’ll buy these dud carbon credits from me?
Jumping Jehosiphat! I knew we’d ‘roo’ the day we let Gore Walkabout.
“I must be dreaming…consensus says it’s WARM!”
” Hey Al – your global warming theory a snow job or what?”

Caught with empirical climate data on his fur, Skippy finds himself behind the wire in a denier containment camp.
Damn, I’m freezing my tail off! I need to find a surface station!
What’s that Skippy? The Hockey Team bandits have hidden the data in the old mine? I’ll go tell Steve!
An interested local watches filming of the Catlin arctic docu-drama on location in Australia.
Hold still Skippy, the Bureau of Meteorology wants to re-site their thermometer…
This Aussie will roo the day winter finally arrives
Comment on my fellow captionists:
Waaaaaaaa . . .
Wish I’d thought of the Catlin/polar bear adaptation theme.
You people are a hoot!
OH MY GOSH.
Konrad wins my best caption nomination for this:
