Morning, Wednesday readers!

Just a few weeks left until Christmas and I'm sure everyone is feeling life getting crazy. I actually love this time of year. It's a great excuse to catch up with people, give each other gifts, eat, drink and be merry and the water is nice enough for a swim.

And speaking of all things water, Steve Gillespie is back with his incredible underwater shots. And this time, he's also telling the story and it's all about the weird and wonderful nudibranchs. I'm sure it'll make you want to dust off your cossies and dive in.

If you feel like a land-based adventure, Russell Verdon from the Illawarra Ramblers shares his top three places to wander.

And don't forget to share your favourite nature-based places and activities with us.

Until next week,

I'll see you outdoors.
