Common Ringtail Possum (Pseudocheirus peregrinus)

Cold, wet and harassed by Noisy Miners, this poor little guy wasn't having a great time of it.

Taken with an OM-1 Mk II / M.Zuiko Digital ED 90mm F3.5 Macro IS PRO

I couldn't position myself to get the framing of this photo where I wanted it, but still, I found the conjunction of the airport control tower, the anchored boat interesting,

I really wanted to move to the left further and put the boat to the right of the tower, but I'd had to have gone swimming to make that work :)

Tawny Frogmouth (Podargus strigoides)

This was taken in near total darkness, with a hand held, 300mm 1 second exposure. I love this camera and lens!

And thank you to the Tawny, who was happy staying perfectly still for my long exposure :)

Laughing Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae)

This fine bird came up on to our back deck looking for a handout. Which is strange, because we'd never seen the bird before, nor feed them, and they've never come back since. But still, they seemed to enjoy the little bit of meat they got (You aren't meant to feed them mince on a regular basis, but, this was a one off).
