08.01.2022 Shout out to the ADF for being here during the 2019 Monsoonal Trough to assist us with getting fuel, supplies and fodder to those in need! Trials are now been conducted out of RAAF Base Richmond, using C-130 Hercules and C-27J Spartan transport aircraft. The new method reduces the risk of debris damaging the aircraft, uses materials that don’t injure animals if ingested, and enables fodder to be delivered without the need for people on the ground to uncover and distribute it. #raaf #adf #northwestqld #mckinlayshire

05.01.2022 Can you see the snake? Even on this lawn, they are hard to spot Just a reminder that the Summer Months herald an increase in snake activity.... Avoid creating a habitat for snakes in and around your home by: Mowing long grass Keeping a tidy, well-maintained yard and shed. Actively discourage rats and mice Snake-proof your aviaries and poultry pens. Blocking off as many potential access points as possible can significantly reduce the chance of snakes entering your house. Install screens on doors and windows.
