Beautiful Animals

the mon, tues & wednesdaily B & O

osso, I don't see any moral messiness re animals. I have similar feelings. No, You didn't miss my birthday. Did we miss yours?

HH, What a gorgeous fish. Look at the stunning patterns. It's really called that? I'm gonna do some research. Thanks, kid. Back. Did some poking around. The name is from the Australian aboriginal language. It means "shaggy beard."

Sure, dj. I work my fingers to the bone clicking in google to come up with a bunny and an otter, and you show up with three each. The bunnies are adorable. LOVE the otters--all three. And especially the spinner. You're a good kid.

No, Izzie threaded me with cakes..

dj, the spinning otter was a treat. Well, just about all otters are a treat.

I don't think I post enough about how beautiful the fish are. They always amaze me.

I participated in that thread. Sorry, I forgot.

White Siberian Hamster

Hey, remembering the day before yesterday is hard enough for me..

White alaskan malamute -

(When I saw this on Facebook the caption was "In case anyone's feeling crabby today: Here's an otter showing you its baby.")

HH, It's white, and it may be from Siberia. But I have grave doubts that that's a hamster.

osso, My cousin used to have malamutes--not white. Enormous and gorgeous dawgs. Sigh.

(I learn so much on this thread)

I saw it on a nature documentary, my memory is a little hazy, I think John Cleese did the narration, the hamster's name was Basil, some sort of towers....

It was a Siberian filagree hamster.
You must excuse hinghead,he's from Barcelona
Hits him on the head with a spoon and exits stage left.

Did you know that when they showed Fawlty Towers in Spain it was ripped off the air until they could redub it with Manuel being 'from Portugal'?

This must be the mommy frog that laid all the eggs in my fountain. I have dozens of tadpoles living in it. I just took this photo, she is sitting on the shutter just above the fountain.

Another terrific pic, JC. You've had pictures of a lizard and now the frog. I thought, is this kid living in a swamp? Then I remembered you live in Florida.

snood, I like the theme. I love the pictures. Thanks, kid.

So I googled "Siberian hamster" and found a site that actually called "Siberian hamster." Here's a picture of one. Note that like other hamsters, this one doesn't have a tail.



You can fool some of the people some of the time, but don't be passing off bogus animals here.
