Sometimes the mix of video and explanation can make me tear for the wonder and pleasure of it.. beauty, really, as in here:

http://www.theguardian.com/science/2014/jul/30/african-jackass-penguins-calls

click on the video when you get to the article - it doesn't go on very long (but seemed more than 16 seconds, probably that sixteen was just the last bit. But the article is good too.

Here's a photo at the top of the article, video somewhere below that.

The article comments have interesting info too.

There are too many great animal photos to comfortably post in this Week in Wildlife - I'll just post one for now.

http://www.theguardian.com/environment/gallery/2014/aug/15/the-week-in-wildlife-in-pictures

Two Himalayan marmots in the drainage region of the Lancang river’s headwaters in Yushu, north-west China’s Qinghai province. A recent biodiversity study recorded 370 species in the region.

Great and wonderful pics, you guys.

My computer crashed again. I'm growing increasingly reluctant to copy and paste. Gonna work on mustering up some courage.

I'll be back.
