Great shot - why do they have a scent gland in the middle of their chest? is that unusual?
June 15th, 2023  
Oh how adorable!
June 15th, 2023  
Nice.

When they actually move it must be an alarm for you - beautiful shot as usual!
June 15th, 2023  
Quite comfortable doing the manoeuvre up high!

He looks like he is on the lookout !!!
June 15th, 2023  
Very lovely.

He has been busy marking his territory hasn't he

Wonderful profile

What a handsome fellow.

I can just visualize him wiggle down into that fork in the tree. We haven’t heard about Hugo in a while, has Valentine become the dominant male in the area?

Posey poser!
June 15th, 2023  
Looks like an awkward position
June 15th, 2023

@gardencat sadly we lost Hugo. he did well for a while after his chlamydia treatment then went suddenly downhill :(

A super capture of Valentine

I like the little branches over his head… almost looks like a hat.
June 15th, 2023  
Great shot
June 15th, 2023  
Oh, he's looking so handsome!
June 15th, 2023  
Lovely pose! The scent gland...to mark his place, or to attract females or both?
June 16th, 2023  
Nice catch
June 16th, 2023  
He is just showing off for you. Looks quite in command up there.
June 16th, 2023  
Great capture.
June 16th, 2023  
I learn so much from your posts

@koalagardens Sorry to hear about Hugo. He seemed such a big strong guy but I guess disease can take anyone down. Seems like the end of an era with both him and Bullet gone. It's a good thing that you've had many of your ladies presenting you with new joeys.

Lovely pose.
