Flooding Rains - Up the Paddock Walk



On Sunday evening we traipsed back up the paddock again (well again for me, first time for everyone else).


There was still water running everywhere but it had gone down since earlier in the day.


Down enough to see the rocks in the dam overflow and to watch the water go over a mini waterfall into the dam.


Down enough that I wandered through where it had earlier been rushing between dams.

 
 


We walked through the very edge of the slushy bottomed 2nd dam to check out the top dam and beyond.


The 2nd dam was certainly full.


Sis G danced in the puddles along the way.


The water flowing between the dams and the paddocks was barely there now. Yes the fence was already like that.


We found the little group of waterfalls coming out of the paddock that made great water slides last time we had rain like this at the beginning of 2011.
 


We admired the watery view across the paddocks.
 


We looked at all the dams grouped together, their water reflecting the grey skies.
Below is left to right the top dam, the 2nd dam, the 3rd dam and at the back is the bottom dam.



And finally what would a wander up the paddock be with a little camera fooling.
