Yes. There were two regular visitors to the back of the cottages every afternoon. These two were not shy and one was on the boardwalk as we came past. It didn't move and I could have reached out and patted it. The mum and baby came out one afternoon. In the early morning we would see them scurrying to their burrows under the shrubs. These, further away from the cottages were more shy and actually ran across our path to get home. One afternoon I found one just outside its burrow have a snooze in the sun.
