Kangaroos!

I finally saw a kangaroo!  In fact, I saw a bunch of them, which is called a mob.  Around dusk, I drove down McIvor road about a half mile past my motel, and there were a bunch of kangaroos in a large grassy field.  I saw one hopping very fast first, then I noticed that it was moving toward a group of kangaroos.  I pulled over and parked the car and tried to walk toward them to get a picture, but they are shy and very fast.  They hopped away and I didn't get a very good picture.  But there were about twenty Kangaroos in the mob, all different sizes.  Some were very big, some were obviously younger and smaller.  As they hopped away from me I thought they looked like giant rabbits.
