fantastic shot

Too bad, that the descriptions are just unilingual =/

I'm a member of a research and study group and would love to use this photo in a report I'm going to be writing up on a visit we did.

Between Wowan and Goovigen in Banana Shire, Central Queensland lies a distinctive landscape feature of the Fitzroy Basin. Three rivers—the Dee and Don Rivers and Callide Creek—converge, sometimes with dramatic consequences, on a three-pronged floodplain. The DeeDon-Callide floodplain is approximately 37 km long, up to five km wide, and about 16,000 ha in area. Complex patterns of water flow ensure that it is rich in wetland features: channels, waterholes, ponds and swamps. Major floods are a constant concern during the wet season at Calliungal and historically the station has experienced some huge losses of cattle. In 1928, about 2000 head of Calliungal cattle were drowned or lost: “The animals went down in hordes. On all sides along the course of the river the beasts were tossed and swirled, some being caught in the branches of trees and others going downstream to be drowned and thrown on the banks for miles down.” And “the sight of cattle suspended in trees 20 to 30 feet from the ground was sufficient evidence that the losses sustained by stock being swept away are very heavy.” 1 Mark Collins recalls that in one such flood, a dead bullock from Calliungal washed up in Rockhampton; Source: wetlandinfo.des.qld.gov.au/resources/static/pdf/resources...

Queensland By the end of 1918, the whole of the state was affected. Many rivers dried up. Darling Downs and surrounding areas were worst hit. The farming sector was severely impacted with reduced production in wheat, sugar and butter; and sheep losses totalled approximately 1.5 million. knowledge.aidr.org.au/resources/environment-national-drou...
