THIS caring wallaby shares her lunch with a hungry pigeon. The doting mum, with her baby joey nestled in her pouch, offers her feathery friend a cone of food. The heart-warming scene was captured by 66 year old photographer Ann Cameron on a family trip to Sydney’s Featherdale Animal Park. “My granddaughter gave the wallaby the ice cream cone full of food, and the pigeon began eating,” says Ann, of Sydney, Australia.
