River rising.

So... this weekend we ended up getting flooded in down at Tracy's. The water rose on Saturday but started to go down during Sunday night. Our first attempt to leave on Monday morning at 6.30 am failed but we made it out around 8.30 and I got to work in time on Monday afternoon.

This was Sunday

The road out was flooded...

But some brave souls weren't daunted.

The river had gone down.

So...it is Eurovision weekend and we have come down to the river. Since our arrival yesterday evening the river has risen with all the recent rain and we are now cut off. We are trusting that it will have gone down by Monday morning allowing me to get back to work on Monday afternoon.

A strange bird!

So...last night I caught a strange bird eating the bird seed on the feeder...

Eastern Grey Quartet.

So...we were visited this afternoon by four Eastern Grey Kangaroos. They don't visit us much up here as they tend to graze down the hill but it was great to have them visit us.

These are some of our regular Walleroos, so you can see the difference.
