Wow, another new creature for me. Not only is Backcountry Gallery Photography Forums the best photography resource, it also reminds me of my father reading the Encyclopedia Britannica every night and learning something new everyday!

@Tom C The Echidna is one of only 2 monotremes, the other is the Platypus.
