Fur seal wrestling. They're play-fighting, but there are some serious wallops in there! Also, check out those gorgeous whiskers. 🦭🤼

Check out this absolute mansion of an #osprey nest. Gotta wonder how many years of adding sticks this took to build. 🦅🪺

A quokka hunched over on leaf litter

"[Vlamingh] found no people but a large number of rats, nearly as big as cats, which had a pouch below their throat into which one could put one’s hand, without being able to understand to what end nature had created an animal like this". #WildOz

A quokka standing on its hind-legs
One of the earliest European accounts of an Australian mammal was of a #quokka, by Willem de Vlamingh in 1696, here on #Rottnest - in fact, he named the island after them (Rottnest means Rat's nest in Dutch - of course it already had a Noongar name: Wadjemup). The account of the voyage... 1/2

Australia has an (unfair) reputation for dangerous animals, but really they just want our wine.

Quokkas of Western Australia. This image taken at Rottnest Island. Fascinating small marsupials that don’t seem to be bothered by humans - likely because of over exposure. Massively cute however! #quokka #westernaustralia #rottnest #perth

A man sits on a wood railing overlooking a white lighthouse sitting on a small hill. The ocean is in the background. There is sand and small bushes scattered around.
Wadjemup/Rottnest Island was one of the most serene places I’ve been in some time. Walking around the island listening the birds— my soul needed this 🩵

Quokkas are small, adorable macropods native to Southwest Australia and unlike kangaroos and wallabies, they can climb trees. They sleep in a sitting position and many of them live in small groups while others are solitary...

Wadjemup (Rottnest Island) has the most stunning white sand beaches that I’ve seen in Australia so far. They’re quite reminiscent of Baja California’s coastal scenery albeit minus the cacti...
