A pademelon, out about a half hour before sunset.  There was barely enough light for this picture.  They graze on the grass, ferns, flowers, just about everything.  You'd think they'd leave quite a mess, but their droppings are small and hard, and it really doesn't seem to be a problem.  You can see the pouch, obviously with a half-grown joey.
