Are you looking to experience an Ag lifestyle in one of the more unique farming locations in Australia in the Ord Valley? Can guarantee you'll learn about farming in the North - can't guarantee you'll catch a barra! If you're interested, please get in touch.

2) Lots of trucks & trades in amongst the tractors. Very organised & widespread throughout Germany. I hope the protests reach Australia, as Australian politicians & bureaucrats are no different to those here in Germany - making the same stupid policy mistakes.

1) Has been very interesting seeing the widespread support for farmers in their protests against planned cuts to the diesel rebate & farm machinery taxation changes - farmers have had enough of politicians & bureaucrats dictating to them how they should be farming #B0801

Wonderful Gouldian Finch news via photographer Col Roberts at Bullo River Station (NT) Interesting observation from him: ā€œI get somewhat bemused when it’s quoted that there are only 2,500 Gouldians left in the wild. There are tens of thousands! ā€œAnd that’s a great thingā€

Great footage from the #ordsome photo & videographer Ben Broady - there’s a lot of water going over the Lake Argyle spillway
facebook.com
Lake Argyle is 120% full, discharging at 390,000 litres per second. That's Perth's daily water usage every 50 minutes.

Pictures & video don’t really do it justice. We spent a bit of time just watching the beauty of the water - bit like reflecting & staring into a campfire at night.

Love waterfall season in the #ordsome East-Kimberley. Bit of an adventure to get to but so worth it. We might not have road access to the south or east at the moment, but the large amounts of rain make it perfect for #chasingwaterfalls ⁦@MattBrannRURAL⁩ ⁦@BOM_WA⁩

The Kununurra Cup annual Socks ā€˜n Jocks race. Born from a mistake in 2009 when the race course was accidentally flooded and the horse racing was cancelled. The tradition lives on and shows us that sometimes mistakes turn out… fun. šŸ˜† #HorseRacing #racecourse #funrun #kununurra

Hey @Telstra any chance you could fix the 4G tower in Kununurra, or at a bare minimum, inform us why the tower is down & when it will be fixed? It’s been out for 4 days now. For a communications provider you don’t communicate very well #timefortheombudsman #again
