• The Kangaroo, by Barron Field. Taken from The New Oxford Book of Australian Verse.

Updated a few new photos to Roophilia 2.0: http://www.flickr.com/photos/roophilia/

As foreshadowed in my earlier Roophilia post, I am basically giving the old 1.0 website a rest. Breeding photos (if I take any again) may still go there, but otherwise new content will go to Roophilia 2.0. The old site was important in its day, but that day has passed.

I found this one quite by chance when I was showing higgs_raccoon around Brisbane.

• Better photos of Andrew's kangaroo in her natural habitat under Art.
  

In other news, I've been playing with PicLens and becoming very enthused with this new way of looking at photos online. So much so, I'm thinking about setting up an RSS feed of Roophilia's photos so Roophilia can join in the fun. I'll need to brush up on my shell scripting again ( Read more... )
