In conversation about Echidnas and dogs, I was told their quills have been found in Tassie Devil feaces.

All very nice. Love the top one. Typifies our sunburnt country and the wildlife that accompanies it.
Colours are beautiful.
Those are gorgeous animals.
Bottom one is showing some character :-)

Thank you. Our daughter lives in Onslow currently. We try to get over once a year. I could easily retire there. The landscape and animals (even those that are trying to kill me) are beautiful.

They swim half submerged, seldom close to shore (here on my dams), and dive frequently then surface up to 20 metres away
