Agile Antechinus

Something a little different from birds... Yellingbo has had a population explosion of the tiny Agile Antechinus recently, this doesn't make them any easier to photograph though!

The top image is an adult and the bottom two are young ones. They scale up and down trees so quickly and effortlessly. It's rather amusing watching the Helmeted HE's check them out too.

They are even climbing up and jumping off trees next to feed stations, to enter the station and eat the HeHo nectar mix. So although very cute, they are actually causing headaches!!
