Awaydays Blog Post 8: Nature n Stuff

Yesterday we went to Mulligan's Flat with Susan's sister Kathy. We saw three echidnas in the space of a 3km walk (bringing my lifetime total of echidnas to 4).




We also saw kangaroos and wallabies, but no good photos available on our phones.

Afterwards Kathy's husband John joined us at the café for an excellent lunch, before we headed off to the National Arboretum café for ice cream. It was hot and windy, so Susan, Kathy and John headed out to look at bonsai while I sat in the cool.

Tonight for dinner we're looking forwards to home made pizza. 

Yum!!

All the photos on the blog whilst we're away will be taken from our cheapest available phones. Camera photos may (or may not) follow.

Who knew? Obviously you two,,, 'Along with the platypus, the echidna is the only other living egg-laying mammal species. Almost a month after mating, the female deposits a single, soft-shelled, leathery egg into her pouch. The gestation period is quite quick – after only ten days the baby echidna hatches. Baby echidnas are called 'puggles'.#
