New South Wales fauna








Most photos taken in the "wild" except for the platypus (Sydney Aquarium), koala, amd echidna (Featherdale Wildlife Park). We did see a wild echidna and many wild koalas, and we were in the near presence of wild platypuses on Kangaroo Island. We saw and heard laughing kookaburras in many places; their mad, hystrical call is the iconic sound of Australia.
