shorter Moonie trip

[Gringa Bows]

went to Moonie sunday,was dry then because they havent had a lot of rain.went for a hunt monday morning for about 2hours keith got a couple of small pigs,but then the rain started.


this is what it looked like out of the shearing shed the rest of the time we were there



this photo was taken at night with the flash on

the road at the gate to the property started to flood so we decided to leave.

parked in the middle of the highway for this pic,lot of water going down there

just out of Dalby,it was dry as a bone,a couple of days before.

oh yeah here's the pigs keith got.we didnt do much hunting but still enjoyed the time we were there.

Rod,

Although the hunt didn't turn out as planned, at least it made for great photos...!

Are you planning of heading back soon...? or is going to be to wet for a while...?

I am thinking of going for a goat hunt tomorrow.... hope I will be able to post some pictures...!

Cheers Guy

G'day Guy,
yep i'm hoping to get back out there in a couple of weeks if the rain stops.....good luck on your goat hunt,look forward to pics ..........Rod

It looks a tad damish alright mate. I've had to make a dash out from hunting properties because of wet weather more then once over the years. It is disappointing but that is hunting. The cockies I'm sure don't mind the rain though.

Good photos to mate. I think it was good you got out while you could.

Jeff,when i saw the water running across the road,and getting deeper by the minute,i thought we better go,besides we were getting low on coffee would have went nuts without coffee the cocky would have been wrapped alright ................Rod

Good on ya, fellows, and well-done on the pigs.

[Slackshot]

Thanks for the pics Rod,nice.Maybe you could try hunting with a canoe next time

[Gringa Bows]

Thanks Ben and Slackshot i think if we stayed any longer we would have needed a canoe to get home. ...................Rod

Mate some great pics, I love bush when it rains, the sounds and smells

[Jeffro]

I agree it would have been nice in the rain.well done on the couple of little piggies

[Gringa Bows]

yes Paul it was great walking in the scrub in the rain,but i started running out of dry cloths first day ,and they would'nt dry in the shed,and theres no way i'll walk around naked in front of Keith thanks Jeff,those little fellas were easy enough to sneak up on in the rain and the cocky wants them all gone...................Rod

sounds like you had an awesome time!
The rain sure changes your surroundings in the bush!
Good to get out there...

Cheers, Wolfgang
