Upside down Swans
I was heading into the city the other day from Mt Henry Bridge. Near Millpoint Rd there was this huge gathering of Swans in the river and most were tail up. It looked so funny.

Love it Russ
truckie's sure have BIG HEARTS, old fart stopped on the Brand Highway heading to Geraldton, saw a kangaroo badly injured (dying), did the right thing, stopped and put him out of his misery, we've stopped and dragged road kill off of the road, just in case somebody hits the dead kangaroo or emu, as the wedge tail eagles will eat so much that they can't fly off (bellys over flowing) so then you hit the road kill plus the beautiful eagle. LOL
