Hi there,
We were wondering why the dogs have been barking their heads off... thought it must have been the stray cat that started hanging around, stuck up a tree, or even the Indian myna bird that teases them. I just went and had a better look, and there it was, up in a wattle tree on the dog yard fence line...a young koala!
First one we've actually seen on the property, even though the neighbours have the odd one, and we hear them some nights. Horrible noise it is too, like a grunting.
I've just locked the dogs away so the little thing can climb down and make it to a feed tree.
Cheers,
