It is Winter I know, but seeing the dam frozen over is quite unusual, only seen 3 times in the past 18 years. Here the surrounding bush is reflected in a spot of open water where a rock thrown in by a junior member of the family has broken the ice.
Later in the day after the sun had warmed the cold air we were thrilled to be able to mount a nest box on one of the trees that we had planted ourselves some years ago. Previously they have been too spindly to support the weight of a big nest box, but not so now. This box could soon be home to a Bobuck (Mountain Brushtail possum), a Common Brushtail possum or a family of Ringtail possums.
