First up I apologize that these aren't the sharpest of images, was using my 300mm long lens without a tripod.. or my knees :) I couldn't pass up on this sweet scene while walking in Pinnaroo late yesterday afternoon. I don't know if you have ever seen a joey, it's head inside mum's pouch suckling while she waits with patient expression.. amazingly it's a first for me! Bit of a change from sculptures although we might be back to them at some time very soon :) Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe.. p.s. last shot, look what I spied through the trees beside the lake, last seen here..

It's not a sculpture.. a mothering moment!

Thank you Grace. Beautiful capture.
ReplyDeleteOh how sweet. No, I have only seen a Joey at the zoo. I like the sculpture too.
ReplyDeleteAh, I do love the Joey and his Mom and what fun captures! And how great to see them in the wild and not in a zoo cage!!! And a beautiful sculpture!! You do find the good stuff, Grace!! Thanks so much for sharing, always look forward to your posts!! Hope your week is going well!
ReplyDeleteHow cute ! The baby seems almost as big as his mother ?..
ReplyDeleteCan be tricky to shoot at 300mm without a tripod so I think you did a good job on this fine moment in time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet scene! Arianna
ReplyDeleteMuch better than any sculpture, and I also like the last shot!
ReplyDeleteI love Australia - and I love roos! <3 Very nice photos!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet scene. Mothering in nature is so interesting. It's so instinctive.
ReplyDeleteAwww you've just made my evening! And I remember that lovely sculpture!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet, Grace!
ReplyDeleteThe joey and his mum...so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful mother/joey shot. Great catch!
ReplyDeleteBoy is that cute. The joey is getting big!
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures Grace, very touching...I also like the sculpture in the tree as well very much.
ReplyDeleteHe is pretty big to drink at his mother, but as a human child you can't refuse it as a mother. She is waiting so patiently.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable Grace! I'm so glad you were there to take the pictures. I like the sculpture too.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteEverybody's gotta eat. I remember the first time I saw kangaroos in the wild, driving back to Sydney on the rural road from Jenolan Caves. Might as well have been on a different planet.
ReplyDeletea touching moment ... not a scene we will find on many photo blogs .. thanks for capturing it.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I've only seen kangaroos in zoos.
ReplyDeleteNice capture of our native fauna Grace.

ReplyDeleteWOW a 300mm lens, I wish I had one! Would like to see a kangaroo in person. Until then I will enjoy your pictures. Tom The Backroads Traveller
ReplyDeleteThe joey sure is big! Aw, but sweet scene and great shots, even without your knees, Grace ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe joey looks as if he is loathe to grow up. He needs to hang on to baby ways for a while yet. And love the fantasy of the peeking sculpture.
ReplyDeleteI understand you couldn't pass up on this, I even couldn't, such a sweet scene !
