Since Jeremy asked, here’s more on how we saw the numbat from today’s daily photo.

We went to the Perth Zoo specifically to see a numbat. Once we got there, we waited patiently, and waited some more, scanning the exhibit until…

Are those leaves or sticks, or could they be ears?

Definitely ears!

Then we had to wait another 20 minutes before he finally hopped out of his little pipe hidey-hole and started running around, but it was worth it.
