    Cool Caught trying to break into our place

    Couldn't figure out where the heavy scratching was coming from until I went into the laundry. I could see his outline through the frosted class door. Caught red-handed trying to break in, cute bugger!

    Wasn't put out with human closeness & allowed me to pat him. I ended up guiding him back to the rear of the property where he quickly ensconced himself in one of the gum trees.
    Cheers

    Don't you lurv those unexpected visits!
    Unfortunately, I don't get koalas but I get tons of roo's hanging around. There's 5 Rosellas that won't live anywhere else but on my front deck and there's oodles of cockies.
    Ok, so the cockies are good at a distance... they tend to make a meal out of my window frames
    Still, it's great to get visits like that and a nice photo too!

    It is great when nature come knocking.
    I see you had the Nikon handy. I have taken numerous shots (photos) of kookaburras that regularly visit but the buggers take off before I can get the really up close snaps.

    Great photo.
    I haven't had any koalas so close. There was one with a baby on it's back on my driveway about 6 weeks ago but I haven't seen it since. I had an echidna at my front gate last night though.

    Major,

    I have never seen a koala in the wild in the past seven years that I have been living out bush; and you get to see one in the big smoke:confused:

    What a brilliant photo!

    Great pic Major, great to have visitor like that.
    Was with the neighbour in his workshop the other day when 3 scrub turkeys came strutting across the road. Haven't seen them here before, looks like they were young ones that had been given the bum's rush.

    Hey Alex,

    I've also got a couple of Kookaburra's that sit on the fence just outside the shed opposite the window.
    They watch what I'm doing, even leaning in unison to follow where I go in the shed... very funny to watch. It's a subtle hint they would like me to give them something.
    There's a cheeky butcher bird that strolls into the shed, through the access door (never the roller door) & screams at me until I get it some mince. He won't come in when there is machines running, so he tends to scare the krappers outta ya if ya don't see him first.

    I reckon we are pretty lucky, only 21km from the GPO & we have wallabies, koala's, plenty of snakes & all manner of bird life.
    Cheers
