Drover's Companion: Kimberley Cattle Muster A stockwoman sits astride her mount, surveying a vast golden grassland dotted with rich mahogany-colored Brahman cattle. Wearing a classic wide-brimmed Australian bush hat and crisp white long-sleeved shirt, she grips a blue water bottle - essential hydration during the demanding work of cattle mustering in Western Australia's rugged Kimberley region. In the distance, another rider guides the herd across the sun-drenched landscape, where sparse trees punctuate the horizon beneath a crystalline blue sky scattered with soft white clouds. The dry season landscape shimmers with heat, the parched grasses a testament to the harsh beauty of the station country. Her stance is relaxed yet alert, a seasoned drover comfortable in the expansive wilderness, embodying the resilience and skill of women in agriculture who play a critical role in Australia's pastoral industries. The scene captures the timeless rhythm of cattle management - a delicate dance of human, horse, and livestock across an unforgiving yet magnificent terrain.
