•  Info At around 7 months, the joey first starts to explore but doesn't leave its mother's side. No wombat FPs. Unusual to observe this in the wild. A ranger was close by, offering protection. All by Charlesjsharp -- Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:52, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Neutral Part of the animal is not sharp. The left ear is particularly worrying.--Famberhorst (talk) 17:52, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

• Animal moving so no focus stack. Camera settings are a good compromise. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:30, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

•  Support I was first surprised but then found out it's on Maria Island (a wombat-haven). Still a great take, though! --SHB2000 (talk) 09:42, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
•  Support Good composition and close-up detail for a difficult animal to capture, all outweighs the points Famberhorst raises for me. Cmao20 (talk) 15:01, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
