headrest

Look closely and you can see Maxine's nose is nestled into her hind foot with that opposable thumb on the foot giving the support :)
Thank you for the many thoughtful comments on my photos

So contented in her sleep ! a lovely capture !

[Elyse Klemchuk]

She looks very content! Does her joey also sleep when she is asleep?

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@kchuk I would imagine for the most part yes - sometimes joey may wake her I would suspect, and other times they would both just sleep :)

They can sleep in the oddest positions - and look so comfortable. Love this close-up

@epcello they actually sleep anything from 18-22 hours a day as incredible as that seems! digesting the eucalypt leaves actually takes a lot of their energy and so they sleep while digesting and they spend most of their time digesting :)
