Australian Squirrels

In Boston occasionally you see tourists spending time taking pictures of squirrels and chipmunks. Certainly I too have been guilty of this as well, but for the most part we all get over it by the age of 12 or so. And by 18 after having seem dozens jump out in front of your car they have become a cute but mild nuisance.

We think we are taking pictures of Australian "squirrels". But they certainly are cute. Wallabies and kangaroos seem to be just about everywhere. In areas where they have been around humans they are really not that bothered by us. And the roads are certainly littered with their carcasses.

Since they are so adorable, here are some more kangaroos. Eventually we might get tired of it, but it hasn’t happened yet.

They are so cute! It is funny to think they are just roaming around everywhere. I guess it is like monkeys in India...on my first trip there I took a jillion pictures of monkeys, but this last trip I was totally bored with them but my friend was taking a jillion monkey pictures cause it was her first time.
