Peacock Video

If you have been a follower on my blog you would of seen various photos of my peacocks and their chicks posted over time.
It is currently mating season here now and the male peacock is in full bloom, so I took a short video to show him off. He's a real sweetheart, we have had him for 8 years, he has fathered many chicks and he doesn't mind me taking his photo LOL

Goanna makes a visit

One of the various Australian wildlife creatures that visit us daily.
This goanna was looking for some scraps I threw out for it and the Magpie and Butcher birds were trying to scare it away LOL was very funny to watch

New Arrival

Sorry I havent posted for a long time, but we have been real busy building, and then I broke my wrist which took me out of action for few months as I had to have an operation so they could put a metal plate and 9 screws into my arm bone... but

We had an arrival on the property.. our Damara Sheep (Marge) had a lamb and this photo was taken when it was only a few hours old

Big Storm Today

We have been experiencing some very wet days lately and today we just had another huge storm which dumped 2 inches of rain in about half an hour. The rain has been hard and fast and we will be stuck at home until it dries out a bit, no point trying to drive out as we will get bogged. Here are some pictures.
