User's notes
Photo 2018: Note the claw emerging from the pouch. This area of Labertouche creek reserve was wiped out in the 2009 Black Saturday fires. The regrowth became sufficient for supporting Ringtails in about 2014, this was when I observed the first Drey. Over the next 4 years the numbers slowly built back up, now (2024) they are once again common.
