Sweet face and I like the colouring on this character. These common names confuse me at times, I'd assumed you'd headed over to the west where you'd crossed paths, but looking this species up I see that they are all across the country in the southern regions - all the way east up to the Great Dividing Range it seems.

  No Paul ,not my pet. This one I found in a coastal flora reserve and they are quite used to people and allow you to get fairly close. If a would have moved a couple of steps closer it would have moved away. Posted 5 years ago
