January Colours and Letters Photo a Day Challenge – 20th: Starts with the letter Q
The round and blue part
Here is a few fruits of a Quandong tree also known as Blue Figs,

And now for the deadly part.
When I had chooks a few years ago, it was devastating to find dead birds after a Spotted-tailed Quoll paid a nocturnal visit. Notoriously hard to catch, I set the trap with a dead chook previously killed and I managed to trap it. I released the Quoll in the Gibraltar Range National Park in the morning. Once I opened the cage it was gone in milliseconds before I could get a photo of the Quoll not in the trap.

Never heard of either of these before. The fruits look like cannonballs. The Quoll looks extremely nasty!

More like golf balls.
Yes it is a nasty cat like creature. Very sharp teeth. The second largest carnivore in Australia. Can weigh up to 5kg

Well done you on capturing that troublesome visitor, and glad you were able to release it else where

It took quite a number of nights to get it captured. The National Park was the right place and is about 20kms from my place
