Thanks for all the great pics, gang. I'm becoming discouraged that so may of my photos become red Xs. Phooey.

I'm gonna give it another try, sigh.

A black-winged stilt with a chick (Himantopus himantopus). The birds were probably forced north by arid conditions in their usual breeding grounds in the Mediterranean.

This appears to be a nymph of a Flatid Planthopper, but the species I found here: http://bugguide.net/node/view/7342/bgimage , the best match I can find, isn't reported in Korea:

I tried on and off all steenkin' day to find and post a photo of a steekin' bald eagle. If this doesn't work, I'm just going to slink away and sulk. I'm not much of a slinker, but I'm a helluva sulker.

A SLED DOG’S SUMMER
POSTED BY THEA TRAFF


I get tired of changing type that shows up on my computer as very large when it wasn't in the first place, so I'll leave that medium.

There are ten photos worth looking at.
