[Image description: A stylized digital drawing of two black cats walking side by side. The one on the left, named Roost, has short solid black fur, blue eyes, big ears & a somewhat lanky build. He is smiling slightly & looking to the left, away from his companion. The one on the right, named Spooky, is smaller, long-haired and has orange eyes & a white throat, snout, paws & tail tip. She is looking down & smiling. End of image description]

happy black cat day (october 27th)!!

at this point I'm running out of ideas for how to draw these two XD I might have to try something different next black cat appreciation day. maybe hypokits? or I'll just start drawing random black cats instead of ocs.. maybe followers' ocs? don't know how many of you guys have black cat characters I could use though, that's a bit specific. oh, maybe I could just draw Roost doing stuff on his own? a drawing of Roost hunting would be cool I think.

Crowned Shrew

reblog if you support the humble echidna

[rattyexplores]

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).

A fat tailed dunnart (Sminthopsis crassicaudata) in Terrick Terrick National Park, Australia

As the smallest diving mammal hunting for this water shrew lasts only a few seconds, but their technique underwater is remarkable. Their eyesight is poor so they rely on foraging along the bottom to find movement with their long whiskers. To find stealthier prey they have the rare ability to smell underwater. By blowing tiny bubbles of air they can detect scent particles in the water. Nature on PBS

Sure!
