I just returned from a trip to Australia where I had the opportunity to photograph some of the Koala bears, as well have a chance to watch the sunset arrival of the Little Penguins (the smallest of the penguin species and actually named as such) from sea, returning back to their nests.  An abundance of Wallabies and Kangaroos were also seen on this trip during my short time traveling along the Great Ocean Road.  Also visited were some of the national parks, such as the Great Otway National Park and the Port Campbell National Park.   It seems the global theme of man and his endangerment of the environment exists everywhere.  The famed Koala bear with its iconic sleepy-eyes, often found on most postcards mailed from Australia, is now listed as a threatened species by the Australian government.  Their numbers have been declining significantly and scientist have been raising the alarm bell for this well recognized furry marsupial.
