nice .. ya probably killed it's night vision with the flash
I wonder how many lose their night vision in a lightening storm . Have you ever heard of any humans losing their vision due to a flash? I haven't .
I use a red LED torch.

No worries Matt.
I have been doing night photography ( birds and animals) for a long time now, and the safety of the creatures is always my top priority. I locate them with a 5 watt RED LED torch, and usually only take two or three pics and let them be. The RED light doesn't affect their vision at all. From what I have witnessed they appear to recover very quickly from the flash.I have walked up to within 10 mtrs of a fox using it.
Nice one Rev,
We also have a few that think our backyard is a great Restaurant as Carol leaves the food scraps out for them.
They will quite often just sit on the lawn watching me at the telescope.
Almost trip over them some nights.
I'm not a fan of the brushtails - they are kind of big and make a yucky grunting sound. The ringtails on the other hand are quite small and cute. I have loads of them in the backyard - I've counted around 10 in one roll call without even trying.
