Echidna (with flower)

Another shot of my little friend the Echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) coming towards me. It really was quite unafraid of my presence which is unusal for these things, as they are usually very timid and roll into a 'hedgehog' type ball at the slightest movement.

 

I felt very privileged to be allowed so close for so long.
