Sailing to St.Bees Island; Things That Go Bump in The Night & Seeing a Rare Koala

Episode 388 : Season 12 : Sailing Australia Hello Friends, On this episode we hauled up at Digby island and had a 10 hour 44NM passage to St. Bees where we had a very noisy night on the mooring ball as it slammed continuously into the hull over and over and over. We had read about the Koalas on St. Bees that are studied for their unique success as an isolated population. You can read more about there here: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-09-04/island-mystery-st-bees-koala-population-remains-focus-research/101390006 We found a really neat dry tidal lagoon onshore and some dense bush with butterflies, wild orchids and a shy kangaroo. We also found A KOALA!!!!!! My first time seeing one in the wild!!!!! If you enjoy the channel please "Like" the videos and Subscribe so you don't miss any future episodes.
