A rare and intimate glimpse of a Honey Possum (Tarsipes rostratus) feeding among the brilliant blooms of a Scarlet Banksia (Banksia coccinea). Native to south-western Australia, the tiny Honey Possum is one of the few mammals in the world that feeds solely on nectar and pollen, delicately threading its long snout and brush-tipped tongue into the flowers.
This vibrant photograph captures the electric contrast of the possum’s soft fur against the rich reds and oranges of the Scarlet Banksia, a bloom celebrated for its vivid colour and ecological importance. The bright, natural light enhances every fine detail — from the banksia’s intricate florets to the delicate whiskers of this nocturnal nectar-feeder.
Printed on museum-grade, archival fine art paper with a beautiful textured surface and a clean white border for signing and editioning.
A striking piece for lovers of native wildlife, rare species, and the vivid, untamed beauty of Australia’s wildflower country.
