RING-TAILED POSSUM
Another creature coming out after the warm summer weather.
This ring-tailed possum was sound asleep on a branch, enjoying the early morning sun after a cool night.
Notice the prehensile tail, free of hair at the tip, to enable a good strong grip as he os she moves around the trees.
It is quite unusual to see them about during the day. This fellow, must have had a big night!
There were also plenty of kangaroos about. They have become very cheeky of late, and will simpley move a few paces out of the way when they meet an early morning walker.
Unfortunately they are not so good at moving out of the way of motor cars on the road.
Kangaroos, friends of motor repairers/.
