Introducing Bill, the agile wallaby.

This is Bill. He's an agile wallaby. He's about 5 months old and likes eating fingers, hiding in fisherman-pants and doing laps of the backyard and linguists' office.

I joined the Wildlife Rescue group in Katherine a few weeks ago, sucked in by the cute furry little things and am now looking after Bill till he's ready to be released. This also gives me the right to truthfully say to any tourist "I really do have a kangaroo in my backyard"!

By the way, I'll be home for christmas, just for the week (24th-1st). Hope to catch you all down there and maybe see you at Campbell NYE party!
