@Roberta,
That adorable beaver looks like he's sucking his thumb while holding his security branch.
Very Happy

tsar, So the beaver is a thumb-sucker. Probably how he got buck teeth. Don't make him self-conscious. He's got issues. Positively, absolutely, totally love that giraffe. They have a difficult time being born. Their mothers don't lie down, so the newborn has a long drop to the ground. Thud. Glad to see this one is on his feet. Wonderful boid pics.

osso, Thanks for the beautiful horse.

Hi Roberta
I took this picture earlier this week of this Scarlet Macaw.

I deleted the original post because the picture didn't work the way I wanted on the screen.

@Roberta,
That Tibetan Mastiff pup is an adorable little puppy and he has a long way to grow. When he's fully grown, one can ride him like a Shetland pony.

See example below....
