Echidna

Young Jack heard something in the garden this afternoon. On investigation we found this Echidna.
The cat wasn't impressed.
You can imagine my surprise when he walked up to me and snuggled up to my slippers, while I was wearing them!!! His put his little snout way inside my slippers looking for ants.
Sic him Rex.

We had an echidna underneath one of the dog's trampoline beds inside the garage one morning he just wandered in and made himself comfortable. Didn't think to grab the camera. Lovely shots Jeanette

Love the slippers too

How cool is that!
I thought echidnas were rare-ish?
Did you pet it?
