Paddling around the eastern end of Springbank Island I caught a glimpse out of the corner my eye of a Swamp Wallaby standing motionless on the discarded pile of cut trees. Its eyes were tracking my progress in the water. I was able to get a few shots while I slowly drifted past but when I paddled backwards to return for better photographs the wallaby had gone.
Significant Sighting! This is probably the first Wallaby recorded on an island in Griffin's Lake, which filled almost 60 years ago. I know there was a female EGK on Springbank Island 7-10 years ago.
