Echidna Close Encounter

Occurred on July 12, 2020 / Aldinga, South Australia

Info from Licensor: "I noticed this little echidna at Aldinga Scrub Conservation Park just to the side of the trail I was walking. When I have seen them in the past they usually bury themselves fairly quickly but this one was too busy looking for food to pay much attention to me. It was great to be able to film it digging and feeding and at one point it even climbed a small dead tree to feed on the ants inside."
