Other range news:
We found kangaroo dung on our equipment one morning. Kangaroos must have come through during the night and thought our equipment was a bathroom.
Duncan spotted a baby emu. It appeared to be separated from its parents.
We had a dust devil hit our shelter. Several of us were inside when suddenly the shelter was slammed by very strong winds and dust was blowing everywhere. It lasted around 10 seconds and then we saw a dust devil receding from us.
A big storm came through one evening. During the day on the range, we had very strong winds blowing red dust everywhere. I had grit in my eyes and on my teeth. I wish we could have taken pictures of the blowing dust. In the village after work, we had medium rains for several hours which is the most I have seen here. By the following morning, there were a few puddles on the road, but the rain had soaked in everywhere else.
