Field Notes

Notes:

We saw a lot of these wallabies grazing on grasslands in the residential estate inside Bunya Mountains National Park (Queensland). The wallaby in this first pic made me laugh, I have never seen a wallaby sit like that before!

My cat sits like this. About as graceful as a sack of potatoes. I love these guys, Shanna. Nice one :-)
