Fat Echidna found on Woppa (they do inhabit the island as well as the mainland).
Sadly, while driving to Yeppoon, we saw a lot of dead echidnas on the road... The highway is frequently covered in native animal roadkill. At least on Woppa, there's little chance of an echidna being runover.
BTW, despite looking like hedgehogs, they're very much unrelated. Echidnas are their own thing (closely related to the platypus).
11/09/23 - Mammalia: Tachyglossus aculeatus - Woppa, cabin area

[ID: Four photographs of a mourning dove sitting on a telephone wire, with a cloudless blue sky behind it, shown from four different angles. The mourning dove has a tan breast and grey wings, with bright orange feet. Its tail is long and pointed, its beak is flat, and its black eyes are large and round. End ID.]
Observation by nonbinary-naturalist (aka me!)
Finally found a mourning dove that didn't immdiately fly away once I started trying to take pictures! :)
