Known recent location but any sighting of Koala on our region is of significance, particularly one with a shot of honeyeater helping itself to fur
User's notes
With Curiosity & Aussiegall doing the Great Glossy Hunt. We saw some birds making a fuss high in the canopy. When we investigated we saw a Brown-headed Honeyeater picking fur off a koala! Image of Honeyeater with koala fur in its bill from "Curiosity".

Are you kidding?! Of course! But maybe mention Aussiegall too - it was a mutual find (Love that we found it on Threatened Species Day 😉)
