| Koalas - Cape Otway |
I have lived in Australia for over 40 years and whilst I am mainly a city boy I have never seen a Koala in the wild - until now. Every tree driving back from the Cape Otway Lighthouse had a Koala in it, and some with a joey (baby) like this one. Quite amazing.

| Gibsons Steps Oil on Canvas 6.5 x 5 inches ( 12 x 7 cm) For Sale $110 plus $18 shipping / insurance A kilometre or so before the 12 Apostles rock formation, where one is not allowed on the beach. Climbed down some very steep steps to get to the beach. It was so very peaceful painting on the beach with only the sond of the surf. UNTIL!!!! a flotilla of buses disgorged a hundred or so tourists and they all clambered down and made so much noise. After about 10 minutes they all disappeared back up and it was peaceful again I guess they had their 10 mintes and were off for 10 minutes somewhere along the road.
