As the day heated up the wallabies on this property at Bunya Mtnswould find somewhere to relax. This little fella headed under a shady tree and bracken fern.

Not a award winner I know, it does show some normal behaviour.

Enjoy and comments welcome

Thanks for showing us a Wallaby at rest. I rarely get to see photos from your part of the world and welcome your contribution to the forum..

Not all photos have to be show winners to be educational and informative. This is an excellent image showing this wallaby's behavior.

Resting in the shade sounds like a great behaviour to me. Thanks for sharing.

Most of the wildlife parks over here have these little guys roaming free and they get around all over the place and have such sweet little faces. They look so laid back when they relax like this!
