We arrived at the block at 4.30pm, a warm but pleasant drive up from Melbourne. Play practice tonight in town. After a bit of a wander around it was time for a cuppa and read in the hammock. About 6.30 I heard the pad of a creature somewhere behind me and figured a knagaroo was about and heading to the dam for a drink. Turned out to be our quiet friend, the black wallaby who lives up in the forest. He regularly moves around on the hill by the house but is generally shy and won't hang around if disturbed. Anyway, he seemed happy enough to hop across the driveway and nibble the grass in the paddock heading down to the dam. Digger barked at him from the verandah but he wasn't put off by that and hung around. Finally I had to jump in the car and head off about 10 past 7, so drove slowly down the hill. He hopped off a little way but was still hanging about when I got to the bottom of the hill.
Headed back to Melbourne Thursday morning after watering the trees. Will be back up next Wednesday.
