User's notes

In the morning this Dusky Antechinus appeared in front of my motion sensing camera set in a rain forest covered gully off Davidson St, Tathra. The gully vegetation was burnt in the 2018 fire. The diagnostic features identifying this antechinus sp. are the large overall size, long body, long slender muzzle and short ears.
