Asian carp, an invasive species of the upper Mississippi and Great Lakes, like to jump. Why? Dunno.


They are celebrating their successful invasion of the US. Smile

@wandeljw,
Hi wandel, Thanks for the alpaca pic. It's a beautiful color, and it looks pensive. Do alpacas pense?

@sozobe,
It reminds me of a friend/one of my old gallery artist's painting. Back if I can find a photo.

@hingehead,
Snood, The grizzly bear pic is a winner. The jellyfish pic ia a beauty. And the seagull pic is breathtaking. Thanks for them all.

HH, Spectacular shot. Dolphins and sharks like to round up fish like this. Then they move in for easy pickings. Hey, fish. sometimes there ain't safety in numbers.

@Roberta,
Quite a lovely swan Roberta. Smile
How old is a lobster? Check his eyestalk
The age of a lobster, or a crab or shrimp, can be determined by counting growth rings, as is done with trees. But scientists aren't sure yet how old a lobster can live to be.

@tsarstepan,
tsar, I'm thinking that lobsters can get mighty old.
