. In this snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Malcolm Schuyl, we are transported to the enchanting world of Melbourne's nocturnal inhabitants. Behold the charismatic Common Brushtail Possum, Trichosurus vulpecula, perched high up in a tree on a moonlit night. With its piercing eyes and bushy tail illuminated against the darkened backdrop, this adult marsupial seems to have mastered the art of posing for the camera. Its sleek fur glows under the gentle glow of moonlight as it surveys its urban domain in Victoria, Australia. Known for their mischievous nature and acrobatic skills, these adorable creatures often venture out at night to explore their surroundings. From raiding fruit trees to playfully hopping from branch to branch, they bring an air of excitement and curiosity wherever they go. As part of Australia's unique wildlife tapestry, these brush-tailed phalangers add charm and character to Melbourne's vibrant ecosystem. Their presence reminds us that even amidst bustling city life, there is always room for wild beauty and unexpected encounters with nature. So next time you find yourself strolling through Melbourne after dusk, keep your eyes peeled for these delightful possums who call this city home. Who knows? You might just catch them striking another pose or engaging in some nighttime shenanigans!
