What a cute critter. Would be neat to see an image of a wallaby and kangaroo in the same picture. What a difference in size, huh? You have such interesting animals and birds down there, Bea.

Interesting gallery, their little claws are a bit scary! My favourites are the ones at the watering hole, I like the shapes :) Thanks ~ Clare

Bea, I agree with Dave, having the opportunity to photograph these animals in the wild must be just awesome, a beautiful gallery and thank you for sharing your wonderful moment in time with us.

Incredible, Bea! What a beautiful animal. Similare to the roos in many ways, but so different. Your shots of this guy are wonderful! ~ Duene

Congratulations Bea, this is an outstanding gallery. You did very well with each and every shot. I have photographed these little guys at our zoo but what a thrill to do it in the wild. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photos.
