This Yellow-footed Antechinus is the same individual I posted earlier. It mustered enough nerve to scurry up the stump before the shutter noise scared it off for good.

This is the cutest little animal. I love those eyes. I like the previous image better but this one gives a great view of that sweet face. Excellent details and light. Seems to be curious about you.

I like both shots. Eyes and right ear with some scaring on top edge give this little guy some character. Thanks for posting.

Nice image, like them both. Would like to see more of the Antechinus in the image, just because you seldom see the smaller mammals from Australia. Thanks for sharing.

Another cool shot of this fellow Rob. I like how he clings onto that tree. Personally I would crop a bit tighter, removing some from the top and left. IMO that will create a more appealing composition.
