Images of a Big Island

Green Valley


This is probably not an image that is normally associated with the Whitsundays but there are areas in the hinterland that are as beautiful as anything found on the islands.
We have had some steady wet season rain that has transfomed a landscape that 6 months ago was brown and as dry as I can remember.
This little area on the O’Çonnell River north of Mackay was a nice little find for me after following my nose down an obscure country road.
It even has some of the wierdest acting cattle I have ever come across! Probably eating the wrong mushrooms.

  3. Lovely image, the colours are stunning. I’m intrigued by the comment about weird cattle, what were they doing?

    • Thanks Odille, the cattle were just going mad,running all over the place for no apparent reason that I could see. Funny to watch, maybe mad cow is alive and well here! Cheers.
