There used to be a huge "Boondy" about the size of a hiace van on the side of the great northern hwy WA, that had a sign saying "free delivery" and a mobile number on it,  I was going to call and have it delivered to my mates place COD, tell them to just leave it on the front lawn Laughing

Also there was a rock balanced atop another bigger rock and someone added some smaller rocks around the side of it and from the road it looked like a huge turtle, it was out near New Norcia on the great northern hwy WA, but have not seen it for some time, the road has been upgraded and re routed so maybe its been dismantled or sitting out of view in a paddock somewhere.

Reminds me of a tree back in the UK......it was in a "lovers lane"....all the branches had used condoms tied on to them.

When traveling in W.A be very wary of the wild life
This cow reckons she had right of way, well she got it. Wow! She even looked at us as if to say
“ i am crossing to the other side of MY paddock”
And what a huge paddock they have

Gnomesville in lower West Australia got flooded with recent rains, clean up is in progress. If you're driving that way it is worth a view.

Saw these critters outside of Mingela between Townsville and Charters Towers. Been meaning to get a photo of them for ages.
