I thought this was a pretty easy one, hopefully you had it right.
Read this story if you have time:
I had some visitors to the koala care centre recently and I sent them for a walk as I had see a big male and a female in the trees very close. After a while I came out and they were a long way away. When they came back to me I asked if they saw them and they shook their heads sadly. I pointed above me and said there he is, just above us (he was about 25 m up). They were stunned as they hadn't looked up once - they though the koalas would be about head height in the tree.
I wonder if it is because zoos keep them in enclosures on small log frames ...
Koalas were made for the very tops of the tree - this one is only a little over half way up, she will go to the very top to eat :)
@hjbenson that's a great shot, so typical! I left a comment back there as well, thanks for sharing with me, I always love seeing other koalas as well as the ones I track here daily :)
Yes I had spotted her , amazing how people are unaware of their life in the trees -- but then we are fortunate on 365 to be educated in their way of life -- thank you !
Yeah, it is amazing what you can see when you actually look up in the trees. I would have never thought that I could find the raccoons around here, but after seeing a few of them in the top of trees, it's a lot easier to find them now. Love the story.
Yes I spotted him, I have learnt a lot about koalas thanks to you but wonder if I would have looked at the top of tall trees for them before following your project
I wouldn't have known that koalas go so high up in the trees if you hadn't educated us with your project ...I always appreciate this glimpse that you give us into their world!
@hermann@beryl@dawnee@janetb@rickster549@seattlite@oldjosh@julienne1@onlyme111@thistle@dsp2 so many great comments on this pic!
How lovely to see you all developing good koala eyes, and learning so much at the same time :) and all in a fun way - these quality comments, to me, are even better than favs on the photos, as it's great to see you all engaging.
Some days it hurts my neck I spend so much time looking up in the tops of the trees!
