This morning I ran the usual out and back to Pine Is, river track, dog exercise and home. The weather was overcast in contrast to yesterday. A good run.

While I was out I saw the funniest thing. The first was on the path at the back of Conder. Up ahead the smallest joey came tearing out of the bush across the path, it did a hairpin turn and when back the way it had come. I guessed that it was just testing out his new legs.

The second was on the track a Pine Is just before you get to the stairs that go to the main beach. I surprised another roo and her joey. The roo hopped into the bushes but the joey started doing these mad out and back loops around me at breakneck speed and then stopping. Hopping towards me and doing the crazy loops again. It did this about three times. Then started calling for it's mum. I have never heard them before, it was a cross between a bark and croak. It found mum and I continued my run.
