What a thrill to see these cute marsupials. I see 5 of these critters. They look so inquisitive, know they can be quite dangerous with their boxing and kicking.

What a wonderful scene. You were being watched. :)

wow, they really blend in! What a joy to have these in the wild there. I loved Australia when I was there and if I had to leave the US, that is where I'd live. Love this image!

Oh, I would love to be there too, glad you kept your distance, but a bigger lens would show their wildness and beauty!
