Spotted this first time mum cuddling her new born yesterday afternoon in a low down fork. Took the opportunity to record the event.

A lovely photo of an iconic creature!

Great image Jeff, good to see the little one with her - that's something you don't tend to see in Zoo's.

Dennis Jason & Beron ... glad you found the photo heart warming. I am priveliged, especially so because all this happens in my yard. Well in trees on the boundary most of which wouldnt be more than 20-30 meters from the house. Daily I take a stroll with a cuppa and check them out ... I always see some and at this time of year regularly spot a mum and joey but not as photogenic as this pair. They were in a fork about 10 ft above the ground and she was happy to have me as close as I was.

What a great capture and what an endearing creature they are. This shot warms the soul, thanks for sharing.
