Some footage from probably the last big summer rain hitting some of our areas this week. It was a welcome sight just before Winter, and early enough to still get some regrowth before the cold sets in. Natural waterholes that were bone dry are now overflowing.
Obviously rains like this bring damage, but that can be dealt with.

"You think we'll still get out today?"
"Sure, animals love this weather."

Rain is always a good thing, when one lives in a dry environment. Enjoy! (y)
 
Great news. I've heard of the drought you guys were dealing with. Hopefully this rain will help.
 
any time you get rains in dry/desert climates you send up a prayer of thanks.

I just hope that all of the Blue Duiker hasn't washed down to the ocean......

Now I know why that road looked like the Grand Canyon.

Glad there is some water in the dams.
 
Hope we get some of that this spring.
 
Glad to see you get the needed rainfall!
 
great news. in 2019 we witnessed multiple plains game fatalities due to the drought.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,

Franco
