Thanks @DonFletcher
I’ll edit the video so it’s smaller and send it to you. It was eating moths drawn to the light from the lounge room. It was an amazing sight. I am unsure what other Antechinus or Dunnart species have been identified near here.
Antechinus flavipes

Two adults and two chicks, possibly at nesting site. Observed from the trail at a distance.
Adults did not have leg bands, indicating that they were born wild in the reserve.

Looks like a Freesia. A common garden bulb.

Hi @Safarigirl, I can see it is a small Dasyurid, i.e. in this area an Antechinus or Sminthopsus (Dunnarts). Probably it was Antechinus agilis but I'd like more confidence in ruling out Sminthopsus murina and Antechinus flavipes. NatureMapper does not accept videos. Could you email a small video to me please at DonFletcher999@gmail.com Do you remember what Antechinus or Dunnart species have previously been identified in the vicinity?
