Trail Camera 15 to 20 June 2020 More of the Bandicoot

Observation for this week:  watched a bird of Lewin's size land on old Mum Kanga's back and pluck away until it had a beak full of fur and then flew off into the forest. The old Kanga didn't twitch, so am guessing she is moulting and why does the bird want a beak full of fur at this time of year? Weird.

Speaking of Old Mum, she and her adolescent are still hanging out


Sometime later young kanga reappears and has a lie down while a variety of birds continue to use the pond


The kangaroo rests for about 40 minutes while the birds come and go. Eventually Old Mum reappears and off they go together



Here is the bandicoot again.



Appearing just before 9.00pm it is busy undermining the rock work for approx 1 hour, spending 11 of those minutes digging in the one spot at the start of this next clip - it must be finding some tasty morsels.


Having a nose around,


it looks for a new spot at which to dig
