You probably already said but I missed it, where were those pictures taken? I swear it looks like Louisiana!

dj, Wonderful B&Os. I especially like the Os.

Now I know where Canada geese go when they're finished wandering around here. Great to see them in Canada.

All those vultures suggest to me that something is dead. Could be wrong.

Enjoyed seeing the cranes.

Enjoyed seeing it all. Thanks, kid.

It looks very rural there. Very much the country.

It looks beautiful there. I hope Tai Chi and her husband are very happy there and it was so nice of you to help them move.

@Arella Mae,
Link to some terrific photos (yes, animals) that I am about to give up trying to push -

I'm a little late to always look at the Guardian's photos (knocks my knuckles with knoodles) - but am quickly learning to check them.

@djjd62,
That second shot of turkey vultures looks too ominous. Were you afraid for your life DJ? Shocked

@Region Philbis,
The irony of that Red fox is that he's a Wankees fan.

Ladies and gentlemen! Don't forget to tip your waitresses!

@ossobuco,
What fascinating photos! I keep thinking I've seen every kind and every color of animal and then more are posted. I am in awe! Thanx for posting that link. I need to find this one slide show that I love and I'll post it on your thread when I find it.

A curious owl turns its head upside down when confronted with a camera lens in a bid to figure out what it could be. Rob Palmer photographed the inquisitive bird in Colorado.

@djjd62,
dj, Did you forget about thud warnings? The bunny near did me in. The otter is not so much thud-worthy as just plain worthy. Sharp and alert.
