Buildup of logs at dawn today as the May flood recedes. At the Mylestom tidal swimming pool, near Bellingen. A large river buoy is also part of the flotsam. If you can grab it, it would make a nice conversation point in your living room or garden.

Dawn scene at Mylestom, near Bellingen, today as the May, 2009 flood was receding. Camera moves south, to south-east, to west. At the west, a massive pile of logs has built up against the wall of the tidal swimming pool.

Today's flood is almost as high as the March 31 flood www.flickr.com/photos/pipwilson/sets/72157617061867951/ (a "100-year flood) and there is much more rain forecast. This is Bellingen's fourth flood since September.

It's not much fun watching lots of care and hard work washed away in heavy rain. This is the 5th flood my town (Bellingen) has endured in 9 months.

This was AFTER the May '09 flood, at North Beach. I suppose that a couple of days earlier the waves were really huge. The beach itself has disappeared. Good old Mother Nature giving us another reminder just who rules the roost. Flick taken at dawn on May 24.

North Beach, near Bellingen, Repton and Mylestom, NSW, Australia, was washed away in the floods, circa May 22-24, 2009. This view is taken from the edge of a new cliff of sand, about 4 or 5 metres high, where a beach existed a few days ago.
