the evil twin

Did a quick run around some of the Central Wheat Belt on the weekend. Miles and miles of wheat paddocks mixed with scrub reserve which a lot of people may find boring but the missus and I love exploring the rocky outcrops and the hidden water supplies, gnamma holes, formations and wildlife.
We saw Mallee Fowl, Roo's, Wallabies, Emu, Wedtail Eagles, Hawks and Kestrels, Dugites (cranky buggers so kept our distance there), thousands of Galahs, Port Lincolns and Corellas and more.
Couple of pics to give you and idea but very hard to grasp the scope of the open country from piccies.
