Short-beaked echidnas can be hard to photograph because they spend most of the day with their faces buried in the ground searching for ants and other delicacies. When this echidna lifted up, it was clear that it had found what it was looking for. It was spotted with the help of Craig Bushie Williams in the bush just outside of his northern Tasmanian property.
