EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Lea Scaddan showcases the elusive and enchanting world of the Short-beaked Echidna, also known as a spiny anteater. In this image, we are granted a rare glimpse into the hidden life of these remarkable creatures as one cleverly conceals itself beneath a fallen log. The Echidna's choice to seek refuge under this decaying timber speaks volumes about its instinctual ability to adapt and blend seamlessly with its surroundings. With its unique combination of sharp spines and soft fur, it effortlessly merges into the textures of nature, becoming an integral part of the landscape. As a monotreme or egg-laying mammal, this particular species belongs to the Tachyglossidae family and is exclusively found in Australia. Its presence in this photograph serves as a reminder of Australia's rich biodiversity and unique wildlife. Lea Scaddan has skillfully captured not only the physical attributes but also the essence of these fascinating creatures through her lens. The play between light and shadow adds depth to their secretive nature while allowing us to appreciate their intricate features up close. This print invites viewers to immerse themselves in an extraordinary moment frozen in time – an encounter with an echidna hiding under a fallen log that reveals both vulnerability and resilience within our natural world.
