Willow was interested but wary: she has possibly learnt a lesson that it doesn't pay to harass wildlife after her seagull experience.  seagull experience:http://babyboomerbooks.com.au/willowswindow%20-%20cat.htm |
According to experts here, there is no way to tell female and male echidnas apart unless a mother is carrying a puggle (best baby word ever!) in her pouch! Alison
