A wallaby has left a driver stunned after being spotted next to the roadside this morning.

The white wallaby was perched behind the Sheepcote Lane railings, between Odds Farm Park and Cliveden.

The animal was seen this morning (February 22) at around 8am.

Although this seems like a rare sighting, wallabies have been reportedly hopping in this part of the world for a while now.

One resident said on a local Facebook group: "There were loads there one day. So I drove home to get my son and show him and they’d vanished." 

Another said: "They belong to a family that lives there  they have lots of animals and look after them all very well."
