It's been a pretty special day at the Airspeed base.
Around 07:00 the big one appeared in the rose bush outside the bedroom door. As you'll see, he/she moved on.
The little one in the top series was discovered outside the front door, mid afternoon, and had hardly moved just before dark.
Can you identify it, can you even SEE it?

Garry, that's a 100% score, even the attitude ;)

Brian, no, it won't bite, but whether it'd poison you on a sandwich..... :dunno:

Evening Mike, I knew what it was but I was so happy just to see "green" in the photo that I didn't answer straight away, snow banks are over 7 feet high outside my place!!...love the Koala, do they come around your garden too?.

Hi Robbie, :hello:
Usually, they're in the gully behind our back paddock, or in next door's Peppermint Gum.
Because of what they eat, they only cross our garden to get to their desired food.
It was unusual to see one so close, especially in daylight, hence the photos.
