A Small Dunnart

A little marsupial hops along the dusty track looking for meat.
It spots a worm,
stealthily creeps up to it...
EEK!!
The dunnart snatches its prey!
Satisfied, our little friend skips off into the long, dead grass.
But little did it know I could see it still tearing down the pinky brown annelid.
I stroll into the grass to try and find it again,
Alas, it has disappeared.
An endangered species, I hope it survives the scary wilderness.
