Wordless Wednesday
August 21, 2019
It’s harder than you think to go Wordless, and I try to let the photos do the talking most Wednesdays in my Wordless Wednesday posts.
This week, I hope you enjoy a collection of Echidnas in a love train, as spotted in our backyard yesterday. Echidnas are such interesting creatures and have some amazing traits.
Let me know what you think by leaving me a comment below 🙂
Feel free to join in by posting a photo using the hashtag #WordlessWednesday – it’s quite a fun and easy post each week!
Have a great day 🙂

Lovely photos of some prickly customers. The ‘love train’ sounds a bit worrying though, trying my best not to think about it too much!

Yes they are very prickly customers Jonno and have a way of protecting themselves when faced with danger, by rolling up into a ball. The love trains are a very clever way of mating!

I searched high and low for years before I saw an echidna in the wild, and you found three together. Lucky you. I’m not sure if cute is the right word for a bunch of prickles, but they are, ‘cute’.

Yes Chris, we often have them in our paddock at this time of year and I still get a thrill seeing them waddling along! I know what you mean, cute is hardly the right word but it does fit them. Thanks 🙂

Such fascinating creatures. On first glance I thought they were a kind of cactus.

They are a very clever design and can roll up into a ball when they feel in danger, with their spikes protecting them. Fascinating again is their love trains in mating season!

Yes I plead guilty – but they deserve a few words written about them!

I have never seen one of these at all and at first, I thought it was a sea creature with spikes. It just goes to show you how where you come from really reflects in how you see the world.
