#BlackSaturday February 7, 2009
Multiple fires burnt throughout Victoria that day with the most devastating being the Kinglake inferno.
This photo is on the same day in #NorthBunyip #Tonimbuk taken from the farm on Ellis Road. The farm survived until the 2019 Bunyip fires
Will you look at the length of this grass. Cattle will be moved onto it in the coming week. No need to buy feed this year

Off to market tomorrow as there's no feed; all the grass and fodder were burnt in #vicfires
Without the wonderful #CFA and airborne water bombers the house and tack room would have burnt. As you can see, the fire ran right up to the house; sheds burnt, & all the hay, water tanks and a bungalow gone.The chooks survived but stock & wildlife affected

'A kick in the guts' Victorian Government defends bushfire crews'
With a huge fire there can never be the resources to save all property. Saving lives, of firefighters and the public, is paramount and was succesful.
Thanks for saving our home
