User's notes
Was making strange calls (I usually hear fighting/mating screetching and ?male/territorial 'throat clearing' calls) when it noticed me nearby at my moth sheet. Eventually it climbed the tree and mum climbed down from another nearby and followed it eventually. No wonder there is so much damage in those trees, I thought it was only the ringtails there.
