basicweb Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi Ethan If you go to Rockingham golf course just before sunset you're likely to see a few, or Serpentine Falls, there are a few there that regularly make an appearance to steal picnic food! And there is also a cemetery near Hillarys where you are sure to see some, can't remember the name of this one sorry. Be sure to post your pics here!

Arwen Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Neil Hawkins Park in Joondalup for a variety of birdlife and Pinnaroo Memorial Park, Whitfords Avenue for an abundance of Kangaroos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moirclan Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Pinneroo in a cemetry of whitfords av craigie , you will trip over the kangeroos there , the best time to find them in large groups in after 3pm , as you go in follow the buriel signs and just follow the rd round and you will see them i largish groups with their babies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Cavesham wildlife park will provide you with a captive audience (pun intended). Serpentine falls was my suggestion also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesw Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Be careful if you go to Pinaroo cementry as we did that when we first arrived and almost ended up attending a funeral! Virtually every golf course has roo's. Dusk and dawn are the best times to see them, I often see them while walking the dog. They aren't very friendly, so so don't expect them to come up to you for food or strokes (unless they are captive in the zoo or wildlife park) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scot01 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Go to Rottnest and try and stay over night and you'll see quoka's galore. May also see snakes on the road if you're lucky and skinks. My back garden every evening there are possums, they live in the roof space and are a bloody nuisance. We block up every possible hole and they still get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
