MLGZoo: Australia, Land of Wonder

 The third section of my little garden zoo is dedicated to animals from Australia and it neighbors, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea.  Although, so far, I think most of the species that are out are only from Australia.  Joining section 1) The Asian Trail, and section 2) The African Adventure, I give you section 3) Australia, Land of Wonder.  Opening with eleven species.
