Ramblings of a retiree in France
I’m still selecting photographs from our many trips Down Under. This one is from 2019.
I’m not sure whether this is a kangaroo, wallaby or a wallaroo but they all used to freeze if you were close by. This one’s clearly hoping to merge with the tree stump behind. We were advised by the rangers at Wolgan Valley NOT to look the animals in the eye as they might think we were predators. As soon as we’d passed, they went back to grazing the grass.
Wonderful! π

Itβs surprising how close you can get to them. Some are positively inquisitive.

Very nice pic. It does indeed blend in with the stump. π
I’m no help on identifying the species though. All I know is Wallabies are smaller than Kangas. π

Thatβs most kind of you. There were so many in Wolgan Valley that is was kinda hard not to get a good photo.
