Spines of an Echidna. An Echidna's body is covered with 2 types of hair. A "normal" short coarse hair to keep them warm and long sharp spines each being a single hair but hard (similar to our fingernails in composition).
She burrows at any slight noise. If she decides to go for a wander, I may be able to get some complete photos this afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by my visual journal! Any comments written, are greatly appreciated.
I take photos because I enjoy it, I find it relaxing, it's a creative outlet and because I can't draw! lol I have no style to speak of. If something catches my eye, I'll photograph it, as I perceive it. I'm experimental if I do any PP work to a photo, as this is part of the creative process for me. So as you can see, I have no aspirations to be a Master Photographer. I take photos simply because I enjoy it. If you're interested there are more bits and pieces here.
