I grew up in a rural area, but have been living in city areas for such a long time that I forgot what the night was truly like. When I did the dark site visit late last year, I was amazed again and happy to rediscover the sky. It's really incredible.
I wasn't completely by myself, however my wife was asleep in a nearby house, so I was alone in the paddock by myself. The roos weren't an issue because I knew they were around from the late afternoon. However a damn rabbit startled the crap out of me in the early hours when I was tired and partly asleep. It wasn't a worry - just caught me by surprise. I think I'm more worried by snakes than anything else though since I doubt I would have any warning of them being around.
