The Old Man of The Forest

old blind roo 01


The park rangers tell us that this bloke is "As old as the hills." He's been around longer than any of the current rangers and he is completely blind. He knows all the trails and all the places to find good eats. Notice he has an apple in his front paws. He also doesn't mind people getting close. Belair National Park, South Australia. Picture taken from about 10 feet away with the Fuji S6500fd on full automatics. The picture was resized for the upload, but otherwise this is the raw shot. Photo by dave, 2009.
