Late yesterday afternoon...
My partner was in the back garden, her son called to her from the driveway because he'd been driving down the street and seen this young fella walking down the street. He parked his car and came over to tell us; what he didn't know was that the koala had followed him, turning into the driveway, walked around the back of the house and made for his gum tree of choice.
We live in the suburbs, these fine furry friends are around, but mostly in big parks down by the river, maybe a mile and a half away through suburbs and really busy roads, so quite how he came to visit us I don't know.
Anyway, over the next couple of hours he climbed up and down all three significant trees in the backyard checking them out. In the morning he was gone.
