After three straight weeks of Alaska photos, figured it’s about time to start mixing in a few from around the world (although plenty more to come from Alaska). One thing that I noticed when photographing the brown bear cubs in all their autumnal fullness, is how much they reminded me of the wombats that I photographed in Tasmania. Big brown, furry balls, waddling across the ground eating as much grass as they possibly could. So here’s one of those wombats, doing its thing to keep the lawn mowed on Maria Island, just off the southeast coast of Tasmania.

1) Please do send more Alaska, I don’t think I could tire of them. 2) Looks like a combination of a koala and hamster. Pretty cute. And it’s looking right at you!

Wonderful ground’s eye view! Looks like he’s going to get me next!
I’ve said it before. Love the wombats. I want one.
Looks like a cuddly woodchuck.
