Thanks Patty, most of the ones I see are a pain to take a picture of because they ball up and hide, at least this little guy didnt seem to mind me taking pics of him for a bit.

Wonderful spotting Scott!! This little cute fellow is quite unique because, as the playtapus, it is a mammal that lays eggs!! I was talking about this today at school and wondered if there was a picture in Project Noah; thank you for sharing it =).
