User's notes

Seen on walk to Shepard's Lookout from the Links. In among the eucalyptus trees hiding behind a rock. Tail was dark and bushy but couldn't distinguish all the colours. Appeared to be healthy and inquisitive. As a few others have seen them I would hope they will have enough area to live comfortably when the developers have been through this section in future.
