Choppers for Mustering
30 July 2021 Our mustering chopper/s are based in Boulia …5km as the crow flies from the Goodwood house…on this nice calm winter morning, you could hear the choppers long before you could see them. We normally only use one chopper, but since this muster was at Mudgeacca in amongst the Hamilton Channels, we used […]
October Eagles
There is more than one reason why I want to share these photos of eagles…I wonder if you can guess it before I state it The roadkill was just off the side of the bitumen road on the way to Boulia town. This eagle doesn’t really want to get too far from the roadkill it […]
A pair of Brolgas
You will normally see brolgas in pairs. This pair is hanging around just outside the house yard…on my way to a bore on Friday (a solar that needed to be turned off) this pair caught my eye so I went stalking, hunting and shooting…and I thought I would share some of the captures. They reminded […]
Spring, in a corner of my garden
If you follow me on FaceBook, you will realise that these sunflowers are amongst my pumpkin patch. I thought that the sunflowers growing above the pumpkin vine would be just lovely, and they have proved that theory. My daughter in law has dressed my youngest granddaughter in sunflower print for all of her 8 months […]
Some birds in my backyard
A photographic blog of photos I captured of birds, one afternoon, in my backyard. My treasured chooks are let out every afternoon about 4. They have been giving us up to a dozen eggs every day. Some days 13, and we have 13 chooks. I wonder if the galahs are offended at the use of […]

April Muster Mudgeacca
When we, #GoodwoodCrew and chopper pilots, were able to witness a sunrise like this, on April Fools day and our country and the world, are in the grip of Coronavirus #covid_19…I felt overwhelmed with being completely blessed in the moment. My YouTube video of this muster shows-off the skills of my iPhone and #DameDrone so […]
Goodwood Bore Hole Cave-In
This blog is for the windmill, borehole nerds or for those interested in how rural people solve issues they are faced with so that we have water…for our stock and humans…when things go pear shape. Water is how we survive out here. Well, water is how we all survive where ever we are. Where we […]
Bruiser’s Bore Pulling 10 January 2020. Rick’s tap, Ann’s Edit and Go
I went to write this description in the area #YouTube gives you when you make a #YouTube video, but it became more than the 5000 characters, the allowed number. So I have had to make a blog out of #BossMan’s videos and my description. As I had more words and photos to add 😊😉 […]
