  Eastern Grey Kangaroo is currently not a common occurrence in this area, with Western Grey Kangaroo and Red Kangaroo being prolific. Only a single individual observed drinking at the river's edge. Photograph taken of the NSW side of the river from the Victorian side. Noogooa Burr (exotic) growing along river's edge.

  "Teenage" male Eastern Grey Kangaroos boxing. Not a serious fight, but possibly in training.

  Watched for some time two kangaroos fighting. They were impressive looking animals. Tall and strong. The Kangaroos around them seemed to take little notice.

  Recent site works at the quarry, the kangaroos spending more time in our yard! 7 individuals, various ages including with young in pouch.

  1. Russell Best  Looks like a pair of male kangaroos. Any location for this one? No location means the records won't be picked up by other databases like the Atlas of Living Australia, plus the lack of location means the records are of limited use in NatureShare.

  2. • Annemaree Docking  Hi Russell. Thanks for letting me know about the location. Still getting used to loading details. I think I have rectified the situation. They are located at my property in Willowmavin. We have a handful of kangaroos that live between a few neighbouring properties. All seem to be large older males.

  Soggy male. New research has suggested size of a male kangaroo's forearms is a key factor in their ability to find and keep mates.
