Gasp! I've had a wildlife camera up in this corner for years - always with the hope that it might capture a spotted-tail quoll. I never, in my wildest dreams, thought it would be realised. But today was the day . . . I have four seconds of video of an alive, healthy, quoll, hopping along, just getting on with its day

Incredible - and that, for some reason, it chose to travel in front of the camera! Usually I get lots of pictures of tails, feet or beaks, as animals duck behind or to the side. So lucky!
