Do you see him? Taken on a spotlighting tour of our local Botanic Gardens. About 25M up this old gumtree, there is a Greater Glider (one of our native gliding possums) blinking into the light from his hole in the trunk. He came out shortly afterwards and you will find him in the PiP (I'd suggest viewing large on black). These were taken hand-held with the light of a wandering spotlight, which explains the poor qualtiy.

Taken on a spotlighting tour of our local Botanic Gardens, this is a Greater Glider - one of our native marsupial gliding possums. The long tail is used in the air as a rudder for steering. More about them here. Our guide spotted him by the reflection from his eyes as he peered from his sleeping hollow in the tree (next image/note)
