Sweetie's me name

Sweetie is a permanent resident at the local Koala Care Centre where I work voluntarily.
Don't get too excited all of you have wondered about how they would be to cuddle, we do not pick even Sweetie up and cuddle her, BUT she does love eskimo kisses and was just leaning out of the leaves here wondering if I was planning on offering my nose to her...

So tender and adorable - beautiful image :)

[Dinah Pinkston]

Amazing close-up with such great detail! I especially like the glint in her eyes.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@beryl I know she seems so gentle when she kisses (I've done it a few times) but she also does like to give a little bite at odd times, so it's a kiss filled with caution!
@yeshanghai @gilbertwood @flyingleap @dsp2 thanks for enjoying! she does have a real glint in those eyes ;)

@katrinastabback thanks for the mutual follow (my name is Katrina too)
@fayefaye @shirleybankfarm @dianen @vera365 @tonydebont @flyrobin @edorreandresen @cruiser wow so many lovely comments :) so glad you enjoyed the close up, they are not easy to get often, even working in the centre most of the time the koalas ignore us cleaning the runs or are stressed, so this was a great moment :)
@happysnaps she does have amazing eyes :)
thank you to all who gave this a fav :) You guys ROCK!
