It's a (cowless) cow paddock. That fence doesn't stop roos at all. Its only three strands (and the bottom one is plain wire), so they typically crawl under, but they can also go over if startled. 'Cause the trees are still there, the roos love it - lots of shade and lots of grass. It's not unusual to see 20 or so roos grazing, even during the day. There's a big commercial golf course about a kilometre down the road, and it's the same down there.

More of the same mob:

The "f off, I'm resting" look. (digital zoom=grainy!)


From the adjacent street. The other roos were under the trees to the right of frame.
