Diamond Jubilee: Charles and Camilla with kissing koalas

Australian animals have yet again delighted the Prince of Wales and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, as they continue with their visit down under.

The royal couple are on a six-day tour of Australia to mark the Diamond Jubilee.

They have already had a warm reception in Papua New Guinea and during the next two weeks they will also visit New Zealand.

An orphaned kangaroo joey, one-year-old Rooby Blue, charmed the duchess on the first day of their Austrialian trip.

They met the koalas while at Government House in Adelaide.
