The echidna is a silly creature

May 17, 2004

Among its many talents is the ability to warp time and space, defocusing light waves slightly to camouflage itself from predators and photographers. Either that or I just bobbled the camera a bit.

Wombats are much sillier, but since the zoos keep them in nearly lightless rooms, I do not have any photographs of the one we saw in the classic cartoon “I am a dead animal? pose (flat on back, four legs straight up in the air, X’es instead of eyes, snoring slightly.)
