Oh, I love this map! I am still laughing. And I will remember my all too short trip to your wonderful country and how beautiful it is along the southern coastline.

Oh that is funny! but all too true! Any legends of creatures? What is the Devil?

How cute! You could sell it to tourist...hehehe Thanks Suzanne

Happy Australia Day- Looks like a lovely place?
J/K love your sense of humor! ;)

HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY TO My AUSSIE FRIENDS. Wow that's a HUGE toad.

This is hilarious and I find it interesting that we breed the same type of politicians...LOL!

Chris, this is a Tasmanian Devil - have a look at the link about their facial tumours. Love Chris

"In response to the impact of DFTD on Tasmanian devil populations, 47 devils have been shipped to mainland Australian wildlife parks to attempt to preserve the genetic diversity of the species. The largest of these efforts is the Barrington Tops "Devil Ark"; an initiative of the Australian Reptile Park. This project aims to create a set of one thousand genetically representative devils, and is now a major focus of the insurance policy.[34] In addition, the Tasman peninsula is being considered as a possible "clean area" with the single narrow access point controlled by physical barriers. The Tasmanian Department of Primary Industries and Water is experimenting on culling infected animals with some signs of success.[35][36]" Taken from Wikipedia.

This is fun, Chris! Thanks for the humor, and Happy Australia Day! Some of my bestest friends are Aussies! Hugs, Jan

We had a very wet and windy Australia day Chris and now I see it is heading down your way. Hugs Joyce

It was lovely in Melbourne, weather wise in that it wasn't scorching - just enough heat that was comfortable for a barbie and celebrating Australia Day.

I do feel for all those battling with floods, tornadoes and bush fires. My daughter is in Karratha and I always worry around this time of the year.
