That night, while outside, on my own, (everyone else was in the cabin) I heard some thing walking on leaves and breaking twigs. Something quite heavy.
I froze.....squeezing my eyes shut, trying to make my night vision come to me faster.
I can hear it coming closer. Couldn't be a possum, it was too heavy.
All I could think of was that damn knife and who had dropped it. visions of some poor person running away, being chased by the owner of the knife.
It was really close now.....
then I heard the sound of grass being pulled and chewed. My night vision had improved enough for me to see that it was a Wombat, only a few feet away from me.

I can't find the pics I took of the wombat, but I present exhibit A...the knife.
Oh MAN! I was wondering where I had dropped that.......
