Domestic Cat (Felis catus)Observer
flowntheloopDescription
Description :
This lovely stray feline was exhibiting sectoral heterochromatism (or dichromatic eyes). The genes responsible for melanin production are the cause of this beautiful effect. It is most often seen in white or tuxedo-colored cats. This individual also exhibited deafness; white cats have a higher risk of genetic cochlear degeneration.
Habitat:
She was first seen on our back porch, near a lawn and mixed hardwoods.
We ultimately ended up fostering this kitty for a couple of weeks before someone adopted her!

Spotted on the way to work one morning!
This was in an Industrial area and had no Collar. So I'm not sure if it was feral or someones pet.

Flinders Island Cave-Slater (Echinodillo cavaticus)Observer
simongroveDescription
Flinders Island cave-slater Echinodillo cavaticus. The world has only two known species of the very distinctive Echinodillo cave-slaters. One is found on the Marquesas Islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. This other species is known only from a small cave in southern Flinders Island, where its entire global range is measurable in square metres. We found this one during our Bush Blitz on Flinders Island in March 2014.

found 2 of these swimming in the mangrove - I think they were swimming because we must have spooked them. They were about the size of the palm of my hand

Dekay's Brownsnake (Storeria dekayi)Observer
jacksonfrostDescription
In the excitement of getting a herp lifer I was a fool and didn't get a photo before trying to grab the critter. It escaped my grasp and dove into the underbrush. I'm so sad. But supposedly field sketches are allowed so here's mine.

Not my work, I just got bored of looking at plants. This is the ex-situ population in Lake Oberon where the Pedder galaxiids are doing really quite well.
