Why did the kangaroo enjoy astronomy?

.... because she was very good at star-hopping!!




I took this photo out at AstroRon's place at Cambroon during our February meet. The wallabies are a regular visitor there, but it took some manouvering to get this alignment. If I remember rightly I was almost straddling someone's EQ mount to take this.

Great Shot Steve, the Wallaby's joey is now starting to peak out of the pouch
She still comes round for a feed
The Scope belongs to Jeff Coffey.

Gee, great shot Steve, you should send that one into "Sky at Night" as well as one of the Aussie mags. Very publishable.
