I recently took another little power-break with the family and headed out of Melbourne to one of our favourite little spots, ‘Wood Duck Cottage‘ in Yea. We’re so lucky to be able to drive no more than an hour and have State Forests, bush walks and farm life to enjoy.

During our 4 day break and when on a little walk near the cottage, we came across this little fellow who was ambling along in the drain way by the unmade road. As you can see, he blends beautifully with the dry mud, leaves and grass. This was one of many photos we managed to get of the echidna but we also got one when he had his little nosed tucked up beneath him, in a tight ball and said “You can’t see me!”
