[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Early in the morning I saw in the corner of my eye what I thought was a big ferrel cat running across the street, disappearing in a storm water drain. I had my Nikon D70 with me and popped up the in-camera flash and jumped in the trench to take a shot. You never know whom you meet in a country storm water drain!
Wombats are like little bulldozers, they just go anywhere and care about nobody, they also have that ‘cute’ factor.

I have heard of rats up a drain pipe but a Wombat!! There don't look like there is much room for any water. I might have cropped that image as tight as possible.

I've seen some cute wombats at wild-life parks. What surprised me was how big and solid they are. I like your comment: "Wombats are like little bulldozers!" Yes, true.
I agree with Clive about cropping closer to the drain - then no excess OOF rubbish would be seen
