I’m not sure if this is a really old kangaroo, or one that bears old injuries from colliding with a car – perhaps both. He is a loner. Yesterday, while walking Vika, I noticed he was grazing on the side of the lane behind our house. This morning, he was even closer and I managed to lean over the fence to get a few shots before he realized I was there.

He didn’t go far. This next shot is across the paddocks from other side of our place.

Thanks for looking.

The Red Kangaroo is the world’s largest surviving marsupial and can grow up two metres tall and weigh 90 kilograms. We don’t usually see the red ones here, but on this day there were a few among the many greys.
