My solution to the puzzle is in spam and I wonder why?

I try it again maybe this time it will go through?

In late 1920 Prof. Flynn took a journey with family to England. They traveled from Hobart to Sydney (3rd picture) then to England with a stop over in South Africa in Durban (see crest).
Prof. Flynn had to deliver to England – London Zoo – some rare species of duck-billed platypuses – native to Tasmania – and Errol collected a bucket of tadpoles (second picture) and fed them to the platypuses – naturally there were consequences for good old Errol.
The last picture is maybe in Sydney but what?

Are those Monotremes in the underwater picture? I see Tasmania. Is it the Great Dividing Range?

The spam filters work automatically, but sometimes flag comments that don’t belong in the spam category. Usually, it has to do with links. :-)

The title of this topic makes no sense. “Why were you, Errol Flynn?”?? Wherefore doesn’t mean where!

Hi, Tim. Wherefore only means why and never where. But that’s ok. People make that mistake all the time!

So sorry, Tim. I meant to write that wherefore never means “where.” It’s a common mistake about the word wherefore, but your topic is still fun!

I’d suggest “Wherefore weret yhou there for, Erroleo?” for a title.
