The Christmas Day Koala


It was Christmas Eve, the presents were wrapped, the gingerbread decorated and Rosco was looking good. All was ready for the onslaught of relatives on Christmas Day. Purely as a precaution to allow more time for cooking on Christmas morning some presents where opened on Christmas Eve. One of these was a very exciting Led Lenser torch, the P7. So as the fairy lights of Sydney turned on and children everywhere where waiting with anticipation we set off to the local bush for a test run. What a torch, we found our usual Koala, then a fox a football field away and then a pair of juvenile owls.

Finally, as we where about to reenter suburbia a new Koala was spotted, close to the road and with easy access for everyone. Early Christmas morning Stephen and Rosco checked it was still there, then after lunch and before pudding a trip to view the Christmas Day Koala was made by assorted family members. Finally they got to see one of Campbeltown Koala’s.
