No wonder this place has been used as a film set - Winton Wetlands is one of our (many) favourite places, and the wildlife and the scenery on this sizzling summer day were haunting.

There are plenty of eastern grey kangaroos near Winton Wetlands, and sadly, many are roadkill. We stopped to move one poor freshly killed mum off the road, and then noticed a paw moving in the pouch. Here's what happened, and what we learnt about what to do next time.

A few months back we decided to get a 4WD camper so we could get better access to birds and nature in remote places...and so our Troopy journey began. But 4WDing can't just be for young blokes, right? In this update, we share what we've done so far, and what's worked for us as "senior gals" - and the challenges we are yet to overcome.
