@Letty,
Hmmm... moorehen? That's a beautiful shade of red on that beak that seems that it should belong to another type of bird.

Lucifer, a male Asiatic lion, holds a football painted in the colors of the English soccer team in his mouth at London's Zoo in Regents Park on Thursday. The zoo gave the media a opportunity to film the lions playing with a ball filled with meat and painted in the colors of England, who are due to compete in the the World Cup in South Africa.

Didn't say nuttin' about your getting et or even bit. I actually know that whale sharks eat plankton. However, they are enormous and probably wouldn't take kindly to have their spots connected. One swipe of the tail could do you in.

Lucifer looks content. Asiatic lions are mighty rare.

tsar, I'm pissed off at the Animal Planet--BIG TIME. How about the National Geographic channel?

Another sea-going reptile--yellow-bellied sea snake:

@Izzie,
D'em Lady Bugs are my favorite insects! How can you not love 'em!

What kind of songbird was that eating those seeds?

A roseate spoonbill passes below a tern over an island in the Barataria Bay on the Gulf coast of Louisiana. The island is home to thousands of brown pelicans, egrets and roseate spoonbills, many of which are now affected by oil after the Deepwater spill. Officials now say that it may be impossible to clean the hundreds of miles of coastal wetlands and islands

@Letty,
Speaking of terriers, I met one of these a week ago.... a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. Seemed a great dog. He was definitely a beautiful animal.
