No, we don't normally  have kangaroos in the city streets in Australia, but 
this was taken in our  
garden just 300 meters from the city centre last  night!

I decided to grab the nearest  camera and lens, which happened to be the 
*ist-D fitted with the 
DA16-45,  and shot with the RTF - which was also useful for spotting the 
animal in the  dark when 
it was in it's focus-assist role!

I cropped the shot to  about 1/3rd it's original size, as the lens was really 
too wide - and the  
animal was too nervous to get any closer.  It fled before the second  flash, 
which resulted in a 
nice picture of the path, plants and a  tree-trunk, but no wallaby!

Comments welcome.

Interesting. Somehow I  thought Kangeroos were larger.
