G'day all

Having a quiet chat with friends in the bush, this wallaby came in from the bush, eyed us off for a few minutes then disappeared

Nice!

Looks like he is ready for a fight.
 
Wonderful! It's always nice to have a chat with the critters. Maybe sip on one of these to enhance the conversation... It's a concoction that is served at the Outback Steakhouse chain here in the US.

Wallaby Darned
8 oz (250 ml) frozen sliced peaches
1 to 2.5 oz (30 to 75 ml) peach schnapps
1 to 1.5 oz (30 to 45 ml) vodka
2 to 4 oz (60 to 125 ml) champagne
4 oz (125 ml) peach nectar OR fuzzy navel drink mix
1 Tbsp (15 ml) sugar (optional)
1/2 to 1 cup (125 to 250 ml) ice

Layer the ingredients in a blender.[1] Place the frozen sliced peaches, 1 oz (30 ml) peach schnapps, 1 oz (30 ml) vodka, 2 oz (60 ml) champagne, 4 oz (125 ml) peach nectar, and 1/2 cup (125 ml) ice into a blender. Cover the blender with its lid.
When making this recipe for the first time, it is best to start with the minimum amount of each ingredient. You can add more of certain ingredients later if you want to alter the taste or texture.
To avoid splashes, place the solid ingredients (the ice and frozen peach slices) in the bottom of the blender. Pour the liquid ingredients on top of that.
Blend until smooth. Switch the blender on, setting it to a high speed, and blend the ingredients together for 30 seconds or until they become smooth.
If your blender has a "blend burst" feature, you may need to use it to help crush the ice.
If large ice chunks remain after you blend the drink for a minute or so, turn off the blender and carefully use a spoon or spatula to push the ice further down, toward the blades.
Do not blend the drink for too long. Over-blending the drink can cause it to become too watery.
Adjust to taste. Use a spoon or a straw to sample the drink. If you want a stronger peach taste, add more peach schnapps. If you want a stronger alcoholic beverage overall, add more vodka and champagne. You can also add more ice if you would prefer a thicker consistency.
Add up to an additional 1.5 oz (45 ml) peach schnapps, 0.5 oz (15 ml) vodka, and 2 oz (60 ml) champagne.
For a thicker consistency, add up to another 1/2 cup (125 ml) ice. (Recipe from WikiHow).

G'day mate ... they are flighty animals, not fighting animals unless the males are squabbling over females
Normally they will turn and disappear into the grasses / bushes at the first inkling of any danger

Really nice portrait. They are really hard to find here in Florida.
