punished_Louie: Absolutely love this story about how STUPID sheep can be! It's like their driven to death! I had one as a boy, wouldn't drink water, so we set out a salt block and changed water buckets, it just licked the block to dehydration! Insanely dumb animal!

kemofure_bot: Black Swan
-
Black Swans are the official birds of western Australia and they are featured on the flag and in the coat of arms. -
The famous australian bush poet Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson have written the poem "black swans".
peterdodds: “It is a sweeping saga that takes the harsh Australian outback, the rugged characters of the Anzac legend, the spirit of Banjo Paterson and ignores them in favour of a greyhound-racing tow truck driver who never meant to be a hero.”
The Castle.

antsharwood: I profiled 60+ people from all sides of the debate. The result is an Australian environmental tale like no other. Normally it’s ecology vs mining or logging etc. This battle is ecology vs heart, versus the iconography of Banjo Paterson Here are some Kosciuszko brumbies I videoed

murphsilver: It's the birthday of the poet, journalist, and songwriter Banjo Paterson, born Andrew Paterson in Narrambla, Australia (1864). Remembered best for writing Waltzing Maltilda
pauljimerson: It’s the birthday of the poet, journalist, and songwriter Banjo Paterson, born Andrew Paterson in Narrambla, Australia (1864). He was a lawyer who wrote poetry on the side — his family and friends called him “Barty” and his readers knew him as “the Banjo.”
pauljimerson: But we remember Banjo Paterson best for writing the lyrics to “Waltzing Matilda.” The words have changed slightly in the years since he wrote these original lyrics:
Oh there once was a swagman camped in the billabong,
Under the shade of a Coolibah tree,
pauljimerson: And he sang as he looked at the old billy boiling,
Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me?
Who’ll come a waltzin’ Matilda my darling,
Who’ll come a waltzin’ Matilda with me?
Waltzing Matilda and leading a water bag,
Who’ll come a waltzing Matilda with me?
Banjo Paterson
tomsims: Born this day in 1864 – Banjo Paterson, Australian journalist, author, and poet (d. 1941)
"He hails from Snowy River, up by Kosciusko's side,
Where the hills are twice as steep, and twice as rough;
Where the horse's hoofs strike firelight from the flints…
