My planned trips to outback SA earlier in the month were cancelled due to road closures so I headed back to AWC's Scotia Sanctuary for 2 weeks of volunteering.
I had a great time working with another great bunch of people, this time in daylight !
Had plenty of time to take photographs and got some pretty special photo opportunities along the way. Please let me know of any ID errors or additions.

I have some photos of animals being handled, and want to highlight that
The Australian Wildlife Conservancy requires strict adherence to animal welfare and hygiene standards during wildlife trapping and handling, aiming to minimize stress, injury, and mortality. All staff, volunteers, and researchers must follow specific operational guidelines alongside required state permits and ethics approvals.
