Mustering

It has been another very wet year, I am a bit sorry I have only just started documenting it as we (I the relative newcomer and he the born and bred here) have never seen it this wet.


We got a helicopter in this time to get the cows in from way out the back here. One of us had to be on horseback which is great because he managed these photos on his little Nokia phone.



They mustered them into large a square we have recently put in and left the cows and calves there overnight.


The following day they walked in beautifully to the yards where we did our last round of weaning and returned them home the next day.....relaxed.

These weaners will be with us for a few weeks, almost a week on hay and water in the yards and then in the holding paddocks for 2 weeks.
