Probably the same echidna again. Fell into trenches dug out for pipes 2 times. Decided to burrow in and we had to excavate him out. Fell back in again the following day. He appreciated the water. (Very dry).

We have water out for all the critters and our pond is getting a lot of use as well. So dry. :(
