1 Nov 2013 (Friday) – Sydney Australia – Taranga Zoo
Bilby. This is (to my thinking) the coolest Australian animals, but, sadly, probably the least photogenic. This photo was taken indoors -- in an area with subdued light -- with no flash (they are nocturnal). It's one of several photos I took, all like this, or worse. The next image here is this same photo, but I tried to do stuff to improve it with the digital photo editor (with limited sucess, if any).
After the trip, I looked on the web for other photos. The ones I found were better than these, but still don't do them justice.
People on the backstage tour got to feed this guy. He eats LIVE mealworms.
