Annie the black flying fox

Marty’s photo of the day #4725: Greetings again from Illinois! Here’s another photo from Around the World in 90 Minutes.

Got any snacks?

Got any snacks?

Marty’s photo of the day #4326: “Got any snacks?” This photo is a bit out of focus, but it cracks me up. This is Herbie, an agile wallaby. He was a rescue animal at Chillagoe Cabins in Queensland, Australia. At the time I shot this photo, Herbie was just a few months away from being […]

All ready for her nap

Marty’s photo of the day #4231: All ready for her nap! This is me holding Bonnie, a silver wallaroo. Bonnie’s mother was hit by a car. The mother died, but Bonnie survived in the pouch.

Marty’s photo of the day #4016: This is an amethystine python that I photographed on a night hike through the rainforest of northern Queensland, Australia. He was about 7 feet-long, but somewhere in this forest was Mom, at 23 feet-long. If only I could find her.

Outback caves

Outback caves

Marty’s photo of the day #3980: I took this photo while looking for Children’s pythons in the outback of Queensland, Australia. The pythons were better at hiding than I was at searching, but the colorful caves helped to brighten an unsuccessful search.

The kangaroo moment

The kangaroo moment

Marty’s photo of the day #3928: When Deb and I traveled to Queensland, Australia, we happened to visit areas uninhabited by large kangaroos. All we saw were three relocated eastern gray kangaroos that hung around the first place we stayed. So this photo was pretty much our big kangaroo moment. Later, we saw wallabies and […]

Queensland river-hiking

Marty’s photo of the day #3594: While in Australia, I took a day to do some solo hiking. My goal was to hike up every river and stream within a ten-mile section of northern Queensland coast. Eventually, I’d reach a place like this, where it was too much work to continue upstream. So I’d hang […]
