These lovelies took turns leading me along the path for a while.
I had to take a lot of pictures to capture this one. Look at that bright red spot on his head! It has a bit of the honey eater coloring. I got a local bird book from the uni library, but oddly, it doesn't have that many pictures so I am not sure what it is.
I also took pictures of some interesting dead trees.
The waves were blowing back in dramatic ways. After about 90 minutes or so of exploring new paths, I decided that perhaps the early bird does not catch the wallaby and I settled on to a bench to watch a surfer. After two or three closeouts, I started to return back down the path toward home, and then. there. they. were!
I doubled back and climbed 3 feet off the path (shhh!!) to get a shot of these two.
And individual shots of the two, a little bit closer (and a decent zoom lens).
Where's Wallaby? |
Who dat? |
I had seen three separate wallabies, and then, just before I left the dunes, these two were hanging out. The one on the right looked a lot younger.
I tried to get a closer shot of the littler one who watched me walk all the way up the path and out of the dunes.
Bye Bye for today, Wallabies!!
