Such gorgeous birds. There was a to-me good article about birds and their travails in china by Jonathan Franzen in the last new yorker, but.. only in abstract at this point.


Continuing thanks for the photos.

Thanks for the additional trogons, reg. Didn't know there was such a bird a few days ago. Now we're swimming in them.

Glad you like the pix, osso. And thanks for the wonderful photo of the dog. I LOVE that face!

Tigershark, Spectacular photo. Those birds just float on the air.


Torpedo ray (they stun their prey with an electric charge strong enough to light up a house--for just a second or two):

Tigershark, I love that bird! If I were inclined to go to the What Made You Smile Today thread, I would say that this boid made me smile. Thanks for posting it, kid.

Marine turtle (sorry, I couldn't find out what kind).

A pair of nesting swans has taken up residence on my uncle's lake. The male spent the day chasing a retarded goose that was trying to steal his mate. I caught about a dozen (small) bluegills and sunfish.

Gorgeous swans, cj. Thanks for the photo. The goose sounds like it's hopelessly in love with the wrong species. Unrequited love. Sigh.
