long awaited rain

Finally we got inches of rain, and we are going to get more again today. Koalas don't drink water from the ground generally, but rely on the water content in their leaves and on rain. So the koalas are feeling mighty relieved and don't at all mind being wet on the outside!
Thank you for the awesome comments and questions on my photos.

Such a contrast with a sleeping koala who is also soaked. Fascinating to see.

His fur is rather bedraggled but he certainly looks content!
