Glad you all enjoyed the trip with me!
cali... thanks... I was SO excited to get pics with them...
Haudlady... yes, the Koala claws were sharp, but I think they filed them... my friend I traveled with works for the zoological society here... and her boyfriend is the Zoo nutritionist... so believe me, I was standing there holding her and had it in my head that no matter how cute, this IS a wild animal...
off the grid... I didn't either! I was floored... here they wouldn't even consider it... but it sure was neat...
light... I'm cracking up about the Koala mating noises... sounds worse than the alley cat that goes in heat in my neighborhood.
And THANK YOU for the name Warratah! I had Wattle on a pic like you posted... but that was as close as I could remember... I changed it in my pics... you should have seen me on this hike, trying to climb, take pics and take notes so I would get it all right... this guide was LOL at me... said I took more pics than any person he'd ever guided before. I filled a 1 gig memory card on the hike 
theav... the joey was so sweet... her mother was hit by a car and someone rescued the joey and took her in to the sanctuary..
trekhawk... LOL!
crazy.... I was not super close to the snake... I have a good zoom I was pretty close to the spider... I have NO CLUE what kind he is... was hoping he was 1) not poisonous and 2) not a jumper 
Thought it was worth the shot tho... next trip I want to do a birding excursion of the outback... I LOVED Australia and all the people we met were wonderful! Friendly and warm...
jobob and salsa.. thanks!
margo.. glad you enjoyed it...
badjuju... thank you!!! I appreciate that feedback... I know how it is when someone comes home from a trip and wants to show you hundreds of pics (I think I took around 500) I tried to be selective and show things people would recognize or find interesting AND that were respresentative of Australia as I saw it...There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

I thought I typed this earlier, but guess not. My mind is going.
Great pics! Thank you for sharing them.
