"We are so lucky to live in an area where there is abundant wildlife."

It's a privilege to be able to share with them, isn't it.

Birdlife is abundant here, detailed in the other thread.

A Brushtailed Possum lives in my verandah, koalas frequent the area, wallabies often seen, and even an occasional kangaroo. Flying foxes come in when there are trees in flower, traces of sugar gliders and ring-tailed possums are found but they're rarely sighted.

Then there are the reptiles too. I had a beautiful resident Eastern Water Dragon (lizard) for a long while but she disappeared last year. There is now a small one, about nine inches long, that I think may be an offspring. Not everybody likes snakes, but the occasional visiting Carpet Pythons are beautiful creatures.

City dwelling? No way!!!
