Whiptail "Pretty Faced" Wallaby Joey

The wallabies seemed to have faired fairly well after the recent fires that went right through the area, and they were concentrated on the few grassy areas left unscorched, allowing for plenty of photographic opportunity.

 

 

 

 

These guys have always been quite common on the grassy, drier sclerophyll-dominated drive up to the park, and they're a real treat every time you drive up there. They're particularly easy to see and get reasonably close to at Cainbable Mountain Lodge, where this shot was taken, which is some 20 minutes before you reach O'Reilly's.
