Great to have the first small marsupial on the South Australian page!

Both A. mimetes (Dusky Antechinus) and A. minimus (Swamp Antechinus) are known from this area. The photo is blurry and overexposed but I think I can just make out grizzled fur and a faint eye ring so I agree with you Feathers that it seems to be minimus. If I was authorised as a moderator on this page I would confirm it.
