Family portrait

Mummy, daddy and baby kangaroo

Not really a family - the male is probably hanging around because the female is “in season”. The youngster will have around at mum’s feet for several months yet. I’m pretty sure there was a younger babe in the pouch.

I wouldn’t like to get into a tussle with a male ‘roo - those forelimbs are reputed to be able to tear rib cages open.

Not the best light for a photograph, taken in the early morning the group watched warily as we (the dogs and I ) headed down the driveway.

Last of the summer vine

Strawberry fresh from the garden

Only minutes before, this strawberry was sitting attached to the vine. This year’s harvest must soon be over; Autumn is upon us, the overnight temperatures are already dropping: 6 degC (43 degF) last night.
