Sign In to followGreat photos Martin. I got a photo of one once, but nowhere near as good as these. Assassin bug are crazy.
Great shots. They are such beautiful birds.
Hi Julie, I think Leuba is correct in that you've found the nest of a Bag Shelter moth. Here's another photo. https://www.flickr.com/photos/centralaus...
Glorious beast of a Black bear. The ones I've seen have been much much smaller.
It looks like you may have spotted the recently arrived species Spurilla braziliana http://www.roboastra.com/Opisthobranch5/...
So many laid-back wombats up at Cradle Mountain.
Carol, there's a Wildlife Rescue & Rehabilitation Mission you could add to this posting. http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/9974...
When you do decide to become a carer, Charlie, contact the State Dept of Wildlife to get all the details. We have lots of urban/suburban carers, who may only have orphans for the first few days of their care, or raise them to a certain size before passing them on to someone with suitable outside runs. So don't rule your current situation out completely.
Delfina, yes a little cengeru (kangaroo), about the size of fat cat when full grown. Two little girls. Thanks maite2, they are still very small, but probably about 8 months old. When they are born, they are no bigger than a jellybean. They are very cute José Miguel, it helps little things survive when they are also very messy and need feeding a lot.
You're making it very hard, injica, not to pack my camera and head straight to Costa Rica. Congratulations, and keep up the good work.
