Attenborough-ish Observations of a Wild Aussie

Right now I am in the premises of a wild Aussie's territory. I am currently at a place known as Williamstown beach, it is quite hot here. I must keep quiet, as the creature is moving. The wild Aussie is running across the hot sand, and it seems the sand is burning the creatures feet. The wild Aussie is close to the cooling water, but it stops running and jumps, landing head first into the water.

 

A few hours have passed and the wild Aussie has finally left the water. It runs swiftly towards a shop it enters and then exits with what seems to be a meat pie. The wild Aussie starts to take a bite, but then immediately stops, it seems to be in pain, it must have been too hot. Once it finally was able to finish the meat pie, it then puts on a pair of, what they call, thongs.

 

The wild Aussie then enters a vehicle known as a ute, but when it enters it seems to be in pain from these things: A seat belt, a steering wheel and the car pedals. That will conclude my sightings in this documentary, farewell.
