I'm not sure if this is the same mum and joey that I photographed at the start of this month, but they like to sunbathe in the same spot. The young one is getting so big that s/he can barely fit into mum's pouch.

It is always lovely to see joeys around, but it is especially nice to see them now since my favourite juvenile delinquent Pip has disappeared. She's probably been run over or killed by dogs ('oh, my animals are well-behaved and don't attack wildlife, that's why I let them roam'). Or, and I'm betting on this, the brush turkeys have had her kidnapped and relocated. Pip, you might remember, is also known as the Scourge of Megapodes, the Furry Fury and the Oncoming Cute Little Storm.

Here's a pic I prepared earlier:
