Thanks so much for pointing that out! I had uploaded these along with my Africa photos and mislabled this set as Africa as well, but I did see these guys in Australia

Hi Emily! A lovely series with this special animal! I guess you must have spotted it some animal park? Can have have another small request for you: could please add some information indicating that the quokka is endemic to a few islands off the coast of Western Australia. We wouldn't want people to believe they run free in South Africa. Thanks! Here's a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quokka

How strange! I will ask if this is a bug in the system that has occurred before. Thanks for changing the order!
EmilyBoyd
I changed the order, but the pictures are still uploading sideways, so, sorry about that!
KarenL
What an adorable series! We do prefer that the wildlife is the main focus of the spotting though so please could you rearrange the order so that the second photo is the main image. You can do that in edit by dragging & dropping images. Unfortunately there is no way to rotate images once they have been downloaded so you might like to try reloading them to fix the problem.

I added some new pics for you, but some of the photos uploaded sideways and I am not sure how to fix this...They are saved right-way up on my computer, so it occurs during the upload.
