Bar raised for good Samaritans after $50k gold nugget returned to owner

A hefty golden nugget worth $50,000 has been returned to its relieved owner by a very, very good Samaritan after going missing in Western Australia.
Dalwallinu Police said on Twitter earlier this week the nugget had been lost on the Great Northern Highway near Wubin, about 270km north of Perth.

Police said the nugget looked similar to this one

Apparently, the ore was held in a black velvet bag but somehow fell from a moving vehicle.
However, the owner got the good news it had been recovered yesterday.
Police thanked the community for their help.
The 83-year-old owner and his wife were “very, very grateful, relieved and very happy”, they said.

We had barely left the vicinity of the camp.” “At first, I thought it was a snake attacking a bird of some sort, but as I got closer, I realized that the bird was actually attacking the snake.

However a Canadian man named Mike Digout accidentally discovered a mother goose taking care of 47 goslings and presumably, not all of them are her own! Mike is a nature photographer.
