All the Rivers Run....


We saw the sun......and we made the most of it!

A glorious Sunday afternoon spent in the fresh air. 
Moving our meat lambs to new paddocks, off the crops to make room for more.




There were other creatures out soaking up the sunshine too.

SPOTTO... a shingle back lizard!



All of nature was alive today!

The paddocks are very wet and water runs from dam to dam through all the little creeks.

On the way home Mum and I followed the water to see where it all comes from.
We started at the bottom of the farm and worked our way up.
From one dam to the next the water overflows through pipes and trickles its way down to the next dam and the next dam and the next dam.


 I call this dam... Big Barrie's.....he is a giant fish that lives at the bottom. He eats boats!


All the dams are full to the top.


The dams are important to the farm. They hold water for the animals to drink.
They provide a home for water creatures.
They also help filter lots of natural things before the water reaches the rivers.
