Field Notes

Description:

While observing the tree kangaroos, one came down to get a drink. You can see the whorl pattern wikipedia describes:

"The most distinctive trait of all tree kangaroos is the hair whorl they possess. It is a patch of hair that goes out in many directions and its location ranges from up near the shoulders all the way down to the tail."
