Oh I definitely will but I had my hands full and was afraid let go in case I dropped him. Such a cute little thing.
Please take pics next time vanessa.smith7 (after the rescue of course :-)
I rescued and release one of these from my naughty cats in suburban Tarragindi (we're near Toohey Forest) 20 September 2012. So amazing to have this wildlife on our doorstep.
Wow, well done.
cute!
It seems to have the required white belly. Did you by any chance see the tail? It is pretty distinctive: longer than head-body length, hairless with small scales arranged like mosaic. Other criteria listed by the Queensland Museum include first and second molars with 4 roots: fancy checking that :-)
Adorable!
Not confident enough to make the call that it is a Fawn footed Melomy ArgyBee.
Do you have doubts about the ID MacChristiansen? It's a fabulous spotting if it is a Fawn Footed Melomy. Great photo too.
