I was so pleased to spot this little guy as they are nocturnal, must have just woken up. Isn't it just the sweetest thing.
These possums are a threatened species in this area due to their habitat being destroyed, like so many native species in Australia. I could rant on all day about this but I won't.
Here in urban Melbourne, we have ringtails and bushy tailed possums, and they have become a scourge. I agree they are beautiful creatures and we have upset the balance of nature.
