Our Wild Neighbours #1


(c) PLJ 2004
Red-necked Wallaby, Macropus rufogriseus
Wallabies are marsupials, i.e. they have pouches. "Joey" is the name for their suckling young. These two and a half are Wallaby-mums that vist our home, this time at our back door in the evening. Sometimes we have ten hanging around, but only a couple of these locals will allow hand feeding, which we do sparingly, because they are very shy and skitty. It is great having them around. Our little cat "Eddy" must think the mice are real monsters here.
