Having spent time moonlighting as a marine biologist and coral rancher, my passion for wildlife is readily apparent. The privileged experience of observing and documenting the living world, especially processes and behaviours rarely or never before observed is amongst the greatest joys one can have behind the lens.

The Common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) is a small marsupial cosmopolitan to the areas of Australia covered by forestry. This includes many areas where their range overlaps with humans - meaning where their nocturnal activities may have once gone unnoticed, the introduction of artificial light has rendered that clandestine activity plain for all to see.

At first glance this little Spotted-tailed quoll (Dasyurus maculatus) looks healthy enough, but sadly looks are deceiving: it had either a broken foot or broken leg, and had clearly been in an altercation with something recently. Despite its injury, it was largely unperturbed by human presence - a sad reality for urbanised wildlife.

The Greater sulphur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita galerita) is one of Australia's most iconic avians - ever-present across most of the continent's population centres. Along with their striking yellow-on-white colouration, their boisterous nature and often-obnoxious antics make sure their presence is noted no matter where you are - deep in the bush hanging from towering Eucalypts, or the city, tearing into rubbish bins designed to keep them out.
