Seems when we’re walking about the park we’re actually on view – to all the animals and birdlife there. We came across many kangaroos, mothers with joeys, and young kangaroos. We saw this big male grey eating but as we got closer he stood up tall to watch us. Quite imposing really.
At Lysterfield Lake Park
I dropped into Lysterfield Lake Park one day during the week as I had to pass by doing a pick up. So I thought why not do my daily walk there, I’m sure to see something interesting! I nearly despaired of not seeing a bird or a wallaby or kanagaroo after a half hour of walking – I could hear the birds but none near enough to focus on. So I headed down to the lake beach and there spied a young kangaroo on its own. I loved the pose with its head up and ears in different directions but after it decided I was getting too close it took off. Here are a couple of shots from that day.

Kangaroo in the park

I think this lovely lady was as surprised as I was when I rounded the corner and we came face-to-face… well almost! She was a few metres from me and wouldn’t turn around so I could show you the joey she had in her pouch. I had interrupted her eating – you can see the grass hanging out the side of her mouth.
