Mother and baby koala

As I drove in our driveway the mother was ferrying her baby on her back across our driveway. I waited until she'd crossed over before completing the rest of the driveway, by this time she'd found her favourite tree and started ascending. This is the time when you WISH you had a 400mm zoom lens! This is the best I could do with only the kit lens in my camera and the lighting at the time of shooting.
