Whenever I drive down my drive way I am on full alert..when a mob of roos hop in front of you and then take off I always wait as there is usually one or two stragglers…this one could not work out which way to go..so I inched own the driveway as the roo kept watching me and the mob…working out how to get back with them..he was in the driveway next door where one day maybe someone will build..it has been cleared but still no sign of a home being built yet..eventually he hopped off back across our driveway and caught up with his mob π
Such an indecisive roo! Glad to hear your voice Bev! Looking like things are greening up nicely π
