    Lucky it was just a dragon David and not a snake. The snakes are just starting to get mobile around here now.
    Was cleaning up a bed of geraniums(or maybe they were pelargoniums ) matted with thick couch all through them this arvo and was half expecting to find a black snake camped up in there.

    I was driving home this evening when I came across a flat snake. Brown snake run over by a truck by the look of it. It could be a bad snake and fire season this year.

    Job I did today, had to backfill behind sleepers with Pig pooh and soil mix, level and then plant 80 Harry Hedge Hogs, ( Syzyguim hybrids ) then add a watering system and also install a watering system in the Vineyard I am building. I will be planting the vines in 2 weeks. 60 bare rooted plants in the two rows. The rows are 50 metres long each and the posts are 1.8 high. They are in the ground 1 metre plus the extra 40cm mounding of soil. There is a watering wire and then a metre above that is the main growing wire.Highfield Front entrance1.jpgHighfield Vineyard2.jpgHighfield Front entrance3.jpg

    Yes good old red soil. it's quite a good soil tho. I had to relearn a lot of stuff as I was used to the sandy black soil. I was digging up the back paddock of this property and dug out a heap of Fools gold rock. There is a actual working Gold mine about 15klms away and another one about to reopen end of this year.

    Yes belongs to the owner, also have a bobcat there too, plus a 72" Husky PZ34 which cops a hammering as the bloke who mows the outside of the yard does not give a stuff mows rocks and all. A set of blades lasts about 50 hours with him. Actually if you look hard in the 3rd picture you can see a cloud of dust, that's him on the mower mowing dirt LOL.
