One week old calf saved


Tarra saved this calf from nasty things happening to him. She is going to rear it and keep it on the farm. He was rejected by its mother and they took it (Terry her brother) and brought it home as we got to their ranch.
He is called Bubbles and Brian and Terry got his bed ready and Tarra made up bottles.
He is a cutie as you can see.

Shane and Gaylene making for home


We have been out since 9am, starting off with a full breakfast at the RSL Club in Kingaroy.
Shane has this irritating habit of 'not' smiling for the camera. But as you see Gaylene more than makes up for it!
They are taking a much needed Sunday off and having befriended us Poms it is lovely.

BBQ at the Bunyas

We are using the coin operated electric bbq in the picnic area at Dandabah where the lodges are and the restaurants.

Shane is cooking and the eggs are freshly laid. We went for the walk before and came back rather ravenous to say the least.

Shane, Brian, Gaylene and Margaret.

Feeding Time


How many parrots can you see?
They are everywhere at this time of day, waiting for their food.
You are given plates to put the food in, you mustn't feed them yourself, you must wash your hands after with special soap. Look at this little girl's face, concentrating or scared?

Wallaby in the rain forest on Bunya Mountains


This little sweetie was happily eating grass when we found him/her - couldn't see a little on its pouch.

Tourist Attraction


Feeding time for the birds at 15.30 for fifteen minites only and they just land any old where...

Bunya tree


'Bonye bonye' tree was first officially recorded by a non-indigenous Australian in the 1830's.
Running out of things to say...
