weight on my shoulder

This joey is not that much smaller than mum - seems like freeloading to me!

[ShirleyB]

Gosh poor Mam. That looks like hard work.

[Denise Wood]

Definite free loader!! Our farm koala always set her babies off much earlier than this! I think it was also because she had front arm that she couldn't use very well for climbing!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Poor mum -- but it is a very loving capture !

[sally agnew]

Delightful shot , thanks for sharing :)

[Babs]

I think this joey must be a bit of a late developer, time he left home I think. haha.

[Kara]

Wow how did I not know about you before?!? Koalas are my favorite animal, I'm so excited for my daily dose of cute!!!!!!!

[Rachel]

Hmm, time to move out of home? That's a big baby.

[Yeshanghai]

Great capture! The baby is killing mom's shoulder and back :(

[Sally Ings]

Wow, that's really taking mum for granted! It's time she sent the youngster packing.

[Valerie Chesney]

Oh, My, mum is clinging on so tightly to that tree.....

[Robyn]

Cute capture

[john graham]

poor mum...but a fantastic shot...

[carol white]

Very cute. Looks pretty heavy for mum to carry

[Elyse Klemchuk]

Joey, I think you might have to sit on a separate branch instead of sharing with mum. You are pretty big!
