  10. RICHARD - if only you knew how close to the truth that is (poor hairy Vince)!
    NO! It's not roadkill.
    You're an impatient bugger.
    Grossness will be coming up on Thursday - okay?

  11. LEENA - it IS growing with a great power!
    It's asking to be touched, isn't it?

    Hope you have a good week too, Leena - hope to see you back on your blog soon!

  13. Looks like bamboo shoots or some kind of grass.

    I hope you have a nice week to match your very nice photo.

  14. It's an Echidna!
    A native Australian animal.
    We came across him in the bush on the week-end.
    He rolled up in a little ball and burrowed into the earth.
    Even though I have seen echidnas before, I was really struck by how hairy he was!
    Echidnas are one of only two monotremes in the world (the other is a platypus).
    A monotreme is a mammal that lays eggs.
    AND - he can use electroreception - like a shark!
