Australia: Wombat in the Blue Mountains

On Monday I received a cover from Australia. Inside were my first cards from Australia.

Australia is a country in Oceania and also a continent. Australia is a member of the UN and of the OECD. Australia's capital is Canberra.

One of the cards is a "Did You Know?" card showing a Wombat. Everything I could write about Wombats is on the card.
The Wombat on the card seems to live near Katoomba in the Blue Mountains. The Greater Blue Mountains Area is known for the 91 eucalyptus taxa occurring there. The Greater Blue Mountains Area is a significant representation of the Australian biodiversity. Since 2000 is the Greater Blue Mountains Area a UNESCO World Heritage Site.


Thank You very much Krystiina!
