Hopping Cuteness

Having found a dead antechinus  outside our front door one day a few months ago, we knew they were here...in the last month or so they have decided to show themselves. One appeared on top of the couch the other night and hopped behind a cushion then disappeared as if by magic :) Another appeared from behind the wood heater (it wasn't on!) hopped around in front and hopped back. Then last night our daughter found one hopping along her windowsill in the middle of the night. They  are incredibly cute, with a long nose or snout, a hopping gait and a pouch. Frustratingly, apart from the dead one, none of them have hung around long enough to be photographed. However the one on our holidays was not camera shy so you can look at that one here
Does anyone else have these beautiful creatures?
