@Dutchy,
cool, the poor fellow looks so sad

the stories i read, said that people were finding koalas cooling themselves in water left out for dogs, and that some people were leaving the water out for the koalas and other wildlife

Izzie, Good grief, girl. Our collective cups runneth over. What wonderful shot. I salute you. And I ask what the little bird with the orange breast is.

The hot koala is a bit sad. Glad people are helping them and other animals.

@shewolfnm,
HA She - he does he does .... yep... or maybe there was some sherry in the fatball! Drunk

Boida.... the colourful pink/red breasted boid is a male chaffinch - just lovely - they are a lot bigger and more noivous than the tits - don't come to the feeders too much - but the handsome boys and purrrty girls are twitterpating at the moment - they sit high in the tree singing to one another.... luverly

Taken is Tunisia. Does anybody know what kind of bird this is? (Looks like a hawk to me.)

@cicerone imposter,
Beautiful Boid ci...... been looking around to see if I could find it... maybe a kite of some sort...it's smaller than an eagle.... hawkish... thought it might be an African Hawk Eagle.... but the colouring is different.... reckon our Boida will know when she sees....

@ossobuco,
Osso, Curve shmurve. You liked the amphibian. Glad to hear it.
