24/5/23: We stopped for a very young juvenile koala that was sitting in the middle of Walkerville Road this afternoon at 3pm.
The location was about 100 metres south from 1385 Walkerville Rd, Tarwin Lower. After quite some time it moved off the road but went to the East side of the roadside where there was a solitary Manna Gum. The opposite side of the road was more heavily vegetated!!!!
At 4.30pm when we were returning along this road we stopped and checked on it and it was fairly high in the tree. Just dread it coming down and crossing the road again!!!! It was such a youngster. Its nose seemed to look scarred. So vulnerable to traffic that uses this road.
