I have now been in Australia for quite some time (even longer than this all in all!) but I realise that I have actually never posted any picture of that Australian icon that is the Kangaroo. It is true that you do not really see them jumping in the streets of the major cities but they remain a common sight (unfortunately their dead corpses on the roads are even most common). Today, I was in a fantastic place called the 'Wildlife Park' 50 kilometers out of Darwin. It is not at all a zoo but more like a reserve or a sanctuary. I came across this tiny wallaby mother with her even tinier joey. It was quite extraordinary the way this little fella was getting hold of his mother's pouch that came hanging out of her belly.
