Koala

The Eucalypts and Melaleucas of Lake Cathie NSW are a great place to see these beautifull animals in the wild.
Unfortunately they are prone to attack by dogs and injuries from cars in populated areas leading to a decline in population in these areas.
This little fella was feeding in the trees over the edge of the lake and I was lucky to observe and photograph him for a couple of days.
His climbing abilities were amazing to watch although quite fragile as he almost fell from the tree tops.
