This poor little deer was stranded on floating ice in the Baltic Sea. But, he was rescued!

@cicerone imposter,
Magnum and Slate seem to have a deal. Anyway, there are compilations on various subjects by magnum photographers that pop up on Slate.com.

These are not the only photographers in the wide world, for sure, but they set a certain pace.

@ossobuco,
he's a really interesting guy, he's big into trying to get people to grow their own fruit and veg, and raise animals if possible

he's started a land share program in the UK that links unused land with folks who want to use it

osso, What a photograph. Major good. Thanks for posting it.

Arella Mae, What a couple of cuties--especially the owl. Re the deer. Glad it got rescued. The commercial lasted longer than the video. I snarl.

dj: Primo porcine pics. (I was aiming for alliteration.)

Firefly, Help! I have spots before my eyes. And I thought my fainting days were over! Truly wonderful pictures. I am enamored of the batfish. What a face! And I like its fins/feet.

@hingehead,
i've been watching some episodes of Bush tucker Man, there's one where he's cutting bamboo in the midst of a colony of Fruit Bats, really cool

These aren't great but I took them last year at a zoo outing. My favorite is the mommy giraffe and the baby giraffe
