Thanks, alex, for the name of the fuzzy moth. I actually recognized the lunar moth. They are beautiful, aren't they?

Thanks, Robert, for the two great pix. I especially like the seals (with lunch/dinner (penguins) in the background.

My sister just told me she got a new dog (that makes three). An old fashioned Irish Setter (red and white) like this one:

@littlek,
really? looks english setter to me, or a mix -- but I haven't researched. My parents had an english setter before I was born, and an irish setter; my aunt had an irish setter, and I've had two of them..

@Region Philbis,
Awww. And good fortune to the remaining one. Hard loss for that one - she says while anthropomorphizing - but guessing it is.

Love dem dawgs, the shrimp, the gorilla, the leapin' lamb, and the marmosets. If I left something out, attribute it to failing memory, and sorry for the omission.
