Bonus Australian wildlife!

One of the nice things about having visitors is it makes you wander around the city more. And then you see things like this:

Echidna, looking snuffly.

Water dragon, looking superior.

The same water dragon, wondering if I was ever going to stop taking photos and leave him/her the hell alone.

  1. Oh! I'd like an echidna of my very own!

  2. Neat photos! I'm trying to think of comparable West Virginian wildlife. Sasquatch maybe, but I don't have pictures I can post.

    I enjoy your blog!

  3. You'd need a steady supply of ants, EA.

    And thanks, laughing gypsy. When you next see Sasquatch, I'll look forward to the photo :)

  4. I thought the water dragon looked a bit like the monitor lizards I saw in Malaysia, but your water dragon has longer and more elegant toes, and a more supercilious expression.

    Perhaps it's more evolved.

  5. That last photo is *hilarious*. He looks like he's smiling at you, with his double chin and all. An old uncle of someone perhaps...

  6. LIZARDS! And a ... hedgehog?

    Yay!

    Sorry I haven't been around lately. But it's cool to catch up. Good luck with that dissertation submitting thing!
