Mothers and daughters.....


There's an old saying that if you want to know what your future bride may look like, look to her mother...this adorable little joey (baby kangaroo) above, that could be mistaken for a baby deer minus it's spots and is cute as can be, will one day be a powerful mamma like 'herself 'below..check out the claws on those back feet..oh la they could do some damage if you stay out late drinking with the boys....!!
Fortunately if you have to make a hasty getaway, you are well equipped to bound out of reach pronto, unfortunately she is equally equipped and will be right behind you haha! Bit scary huh.....!! This is my entry for the 'silly Sunday' theme...what do you mean there isn't one!! Hope you have a fab Sunday....

  9. Bonza photos. If you're ever attacked by a Kangaroo for some strange reason the Kangaroo will use its hind legs and claws to split open your belly, then you'll find your innards on the ground and then you're done for big time, that's how nasty Kangaroos can be :-).

  11. Oz is a greta get away for me in the NZ winter. I tell my husband, that he knows like a kangaroo, small arms, long body and legs. he wasn't impressed. On one of my hols, I bought him a glass kangaroo, just to rub it in.

  13. Yes I did think it was a wee deer for a moment - I've heard about kanagroo hooves and wouldn'tr wish to be on the end of the one.

  22. Wow, he does look like a deer! Very cute. I love how this is something that is common to you, but not to me.

  23. In my case it's more like look to her father's mother. My mother was - and is gorgeous. Me? not so much

    currently watching a mini series about WW2 in the South Pacific - references to Melbourne. Interesting. Don't understand why Australia doesn't get snow (am I wrong?) and why next door New Zeland does in spades.
