Flying Squirrel on the wall - Monday Mural

This mural entitled "Flying Squirrel" or "Sugar Glider" (I've seen it described by both names)  was painted by the Dutch artist/Fremantle resident Amok Island

It was painted for the 2015 FORM and was painted on the side wall of a building in Nick's Lane in Northbridge, just across from the Perth's city centre.

    1. I agree Tom, don't even know if squirrels can fly, but I doubt it!

  3. Now that is a fun one! There are squirrels that fly like that - it is more of a glide than an active flight.
