Something is wrong here. When I look at the My Posts listing, I see that Barry is the last poster. When I come here, it's me. Hope I'm not missing something, Barry. Hoping that you and everybody else aren't missing something too.

@ossobuco,
I'm glad to see Strauss posting too. I thought the owl was in keeping with the giant feline theme. I ignored snowy owl.

Back to the leopard seal, piquant.
I tend to just plain like seals, sea otters, walruses - I want them by my shores.

I know, I know, lots of trouble they can cause, the big fatties, but I want them around.

@ossobuco,
You got me, Strauss. The beautiful snowy owl. Shoulda known and not been caught up in themes.

osso, The West Coast is host to many sea mammals. Leopard seals are much farther south. Much. They hang out in Antarctica.

@Roberta,
So, I made that up, about the leopard owl. So what? It was a good theme.

You seem to have forgotten the cameleopard.

Or is that 'cheetahing'?

Lovely to see that David Attenborough is in town.
One of my very favourite people!
And delighted to hear of the survival of the Lord Howe Island stick insect!
Double bonus! Smile

World renowned naturalist and film-maker Sir David Attenborough visits Melbourne zoo to meet the phasmid, or Lord Howe Island stick insect , and spoke of the remarkable work by breeders in bringing the 'very, very rare creature' back from the brink of extinction. These invertebrates were wiped out on their island home nearly 100 years ago by rats. But nearly 10 years ago a tiny colony was discovered clinging to a cliff on a rocky outcrop just off the island and two were taken to Melbourne zoo for breeding Photograph: Joe Castro/EPA
