User's notes

Surprised by the number and location. Grazing with kangaroos and a rabbit on the fringe of the oval. Not sure if the last image is of a hare or a rabbit.

Well @TomW, I was at least 99.0 % certain, so I had a red hot go. If you don't agree with my confirmation, please help me improve by confirming the correct species.
