Tracker

TRACKER A Bushman Tracker knows the way to follow horses here...every hoof is different He’ll find the track one hoof placed wrong........all have different tracks And remember it a year!.........If he is an Aussie BushmanTracker He’d know the colour of the horse By the hair left on the ground They roll every day of course Hair left in the rolling mound An earmark seen on a beast Is also logged the same Remembered on a cow or sheep If the owner comes to claim The sun in the down under ……remember if you went south, how far back The northern sky it sits…….notice when you went west Watch it never make a blunder…..to find your way, back track Never lost remember it…..some Trackers pass this test…. Don Johnson Yes I started out life as a Drover with 1000 head of cattle me and my Dad. I was 10 when I rode 40 miles to join the herd on the Bollon Stock Route. Watch the sun and know which way you travel and you will be never lost
