This is the world according to me…in photos, words, stories and sometimes even poetry. It’s a fun creative outlet, and as a bonus I get to meet some amazing bloggers from around the world.
My aim is to make you smile, educate you in some way, maybe inspire you and to share my world, while learning about your world.
I love an adventure and I always seem to find one – or it finds me! It keeps me feeling young :)
I’m living life to the fullest and embracing the challenges that come with midlife! I’m now a grandmother x 4, and I am as happy as a pig in mud.
Please take your time exploring my world – it’s full of stories, travels, adventures, photos and love.
I appreciate your visit, your likes and any comments or feedback you care to leave me. Feel free to share the love 😊

Hi, Deb – I so loved following your travel posts for this series. Your photography not only shows your immense creativity, it also reveals the soul of what you were trying to capture – and delightfully displays your joie de vivre (which is completely contagious). Thank you for joining in (and running with it) and for the shoutouts!

I wish I could borrow him in the summer, Debbie. We get a lot of ants on our patio. 🙂 He’s cute!

They are great little ant eaters Jill. They are very shy and their spikes are quite dangerous to predators. Lovely to have your visit and comment thanks Jill.

Thought this was a porcupine or hedgehog. Ha! Never heard of a echidna. Had to look them up. Spiny anteaters, eh? Cute little fellow. Great photos!

Very cute but – I’m thinking – not too cuddly. You have so many unique animals where you live!

Puggles. Now that’s a word that I wouldn’t have believed was true. So cute!

I know! I love the term and a local child care centre uses it as their business name.

They are native to Australia and seek out ants to eat with their long nose. They are also called spiny anteaters and their babies are called puggles 🙂

We don’t get echidnas in WA Deb (except at the zoo) and same with koalas and platypi – we just have to settle for kangaroos (and quokkas when we go to Rottnest). Yours appears to be a cute little soul (as long as you don’t try to pick him up!)

I recently read that echidnas have the largest brain for their body size of any animal and that they are a super intelligent animal, (Sandtalk was where I read it) but what an awesome little animal, they are and fantastic photos.

Anything that eats the ants is a bonus, you need to get him to stay on as a pet! Saw a few echidnas in Oz when we were there especially on road-sides which seemed a bit worrying.
