I met a hungry echidna
with spiky spines all over I’m not kiddin’ ya
it flicked its tongue from its beak
for the ants it did seek
you thought I was kiddin ya, didn’t ya?

A place for observations and recording, for writing, images and musing, another place to be.

They waddle through our garden, always intent on the work of finding food.

Yes, a lot of herbivores are like that in South Africa including hippos and elephants.

Yes, but I’d like to see kangaroos and koala bears 🙃

I am fortunate enough to live somewhere that you can meet native wildlife while going about your daily activities. Kangaroos are plentiful. Koalas are not as common as they used to be though. I guess we all would like to experience the creatures we don’t have access too.

They are always fun to watch waddle by. This one deserved a limerick!
