Dog (SONY NEX-5N E 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 OSS [180mm,f6.3,1/2000s,ISO2000]) This is a special article featuring animals and wildlife I have encountered in the suburb I live in. Of course, many are pets (taken at the dog walking park near Roseville Oval) but occasionally birds and even a bat. Roseville Bridge used to host a bat colony but it looks like they have been driven out.
