Short-beaked echidnas weren’t exactly all over the place, but I did see quite a few of them throughout my trip in Tasmania. Most commonly, I saw them foraging along the side of the road while I was driving from one place to another. This guy was gulping up ants on a small hill on my approach to Cradle Mountain National Park. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 220mm) ISO 800, f/5.6 at 1/1000th of a second

Somewhere in the gene/DNA lineage, there’s a porcupine who is thinking; “what went wrong?” Great shot, Sean!
