Finally! My very first Bandicoot in the wild. Such joy seeing these cuties. And I saw 5!

Bandicoots, whilst they look like rats, are NOT rodents but marsupials--meaning they carry their babies in their pouches!

I counted 30 tiny Eastern Dwarf Tree Frogs on the reeds by my walk to the office this morning. Spring is definitely starting to announce itself.

Yesterday was bookended by two egrets.

In the morning, a Plumed Egret, and in the afternoon, a Great Egret.

Found the ducklings again this morning. So here's another duckling shot.
