So true. lol =3

Here's another one...

Caught a large female perigrine on a pigeon. She carried, and all I got a shot of was some bloody feathers.

Beautiful photos guys! Thought I would get in on the fun even if the number I have taken (and held on to) are limited. Computer crashes cost me way too many of my photos.


Frog at a pond


Geese taking a break before continuing their flight south


Dangerous wild Australian Water Dragon in his native habitat....what? don't believe me?


It took hours to get close enough to take this female's picture. Be careful about trying this yourself, the female is twice as dangerous as the male!

A common frog, Rana esculenta...

Rana esculenta would be the edible frog (not in the picture), R. temporaria is the common frog.

Very nice pictures by the way! That goes for all of you.






Formica rufa attacking what seems to be a larva.

You'll notice that I love the macro function.

A distant Hippo! How come half the animals in my shots are so far away? Must be my aftershave!

Spitting Cobra (Naja sputatrix).

This thread is making me want more pets. I'll try to find some, but they'd probably be of squirrels and other boring mammals that live in Chicago.
