"Looking out my back door"
Well actually looking out my bedroom French doors the other evening saw this big mob of Kangaroo's who grazed for quite a while & then hopped down to my Dam for a drink.
Thought you folk in the Northern Hemisphere might enjoy the sight.
Cool, Barry!
Voilą le soleil d'Austerlitz!
They've been multiplying Baz - Management was quite impressed & sends her regards !!

Nice picture, Barry. The strangest event in my back garden was when two ducks made a nest and I do not have a pond.
hmmm Kangaroos....... You are in New South Wales.Originally Posted by gully_raker

"Hopped down to my dam". Now I'm impressed. You own dam! Can we have a photo please?
Nice herd of skippies Barry! We had some horses come down our street today. They left us a present in the middle of the road.
We get the odd deer or moose wander by. Nice to see something different for a change Thanks Barry
Something the the Lancs to practice on?
Hi Jes! Its only a small Dam as we have 31 Acres.
I will find/take a shot & post later.
Very picturesque Baz.
The best I can do is the odd badger, unless I have too many G&Ts.

Best thing seen out of our back door so far this year was this Sparrow Hawk the other day !
Neighbours cat spooked it before we got any more pics

That reminded me Dave. I did get this in the back garden last back end.

Interesting fauna you have out there, Baz; the best urban Akron can usually muster is a lot of tree rats AKA grey squirrels.
And local zoning won't let me eRATicate them

I must say they beat the possums we get!

Took a while but found some old photos from when the Dam had just been built & another taken when it finally filled.
Note the wood ducks on the road over the Dam wall.
It is 30 foot deep in the centre so evaporation is pretty low which helps in the hot Aussie summers.
Just do not use your Dambuster Lancaster on that dam, Barry.
Your own reservoir Baz.
Well I'll be damned.

Your own sea to fight naval battles in and a runway for your planes to take off from. Lovely
Nice photos Baz, thanks for sharing.
Barry
Very nice! A lane for very careful and mostly sober drivers!

There is acually a small population of wallabies in Brittain. So keep your eyes open, Rob!
These kangaroos are magnificent, Barry! What an exotic picture
