It would be really neat to see time-lapse photography/animation or whatever-it's-called of this.
Just sayin'.
That flower photo was taken in 2008 and the plant has long since died. I'd have to go buy another one lol. Too cold right now.

Had a beautiful sunset tonight. Too bad I live in town. Power lines and poles and houses ruin an otherwise beautiful picture.
Cool link, swachski!That made me curious, so I googled it.

It is indeed. Alligators are found only in America and China.I caught this guy in Idube, Africa. First one I've ever seen there. And while I was excited to see him/her I must say that I'm a bit uneasy for the nearby deer life and the Egyptian geese family that live there, a mom and dad with four goslings. Do you think he'll eat them? And is this a croc?
Very nice, Jude. Are those palms on your property?Iguana!
Palm trees!
I was fortunate to be standing on a rise above the lake while looking down at the bird. She was mostly gliding, using a tail wind that made her easier to capture. And the sunlight was just right at the time.Dino, that third one of the egret flying, with the curved neck and the reflection in the water is stunning.
That made me smile also.something that makes me smile
Those are lovely. Please feel free to overrun this thread with them at any time.Some daylily photos to share on this gloomy day. Well, gloomy here. These were taken in 2011, and they are all plants in my gardens. I have lots more than these, but I won't overrun the thread with them.

Are those shots taken from a live cam feed, NF? I remember you shared a link a while back to a site that records African wildlife, but I didn't save the link at the time.I caught this guy in Idube, Africa. First one I've ever seen there...

Very dramatic sequence, in any case.
Dang, Nif, those geese got balls!
Cool photos, NF.
I was watching this too, but I had to turn it off before I knew if the goslings were safe!
Very nice, Jude. Are those palms on your property?
Thanks N-F!Wow, really? Thanks LadyV. I thought it was a croc by his shape, I didn't know that they only lived in America and China.
aw......love your avie!
That's so sad. I hate when the carelessness of a human threatens the life of an innocent animal. And poo on those stupid rangers. A pool skimmer. Really? I hope she can be found again.The doomed anhinga:
The bird is going to need help removing the line, which effectively has sealed her mouth closed.Isn't there a way that the bird can get it loose with it's claws? Too bad the rangers couldn't have showed up a bit later. Maybe you'll see it again while you're out taking photos.
It would've been far more heroic if I'd tossed those rangers into the lake after the bird flew away...In any case, I think that you are heroic and the animals are lucky to have you there. I'd be scared to death to try and wrestle a bird that size, though I'd definitely would have to do something to try and keep it from dying.
I very much like the images you've shared, and how you transport us to a part of the world most of us are never likely to experience in person.Yes. And I know it's not like I'm out in nature and getting photos, but it takes a lot of patience to get the photo right, the animals move, the camera moves. And since I have no control over the camera, I have to wait until it decides to go back on the animal to get just the right shot and then some turn out blurry or dim. But it's exciting and I'm kind of attached to the little beasties and don't really have anyone to share it with. So I thought since it's live feed and takes hours to actually get the scenes on photo that you guys wouldn't mind me sharing them.
I saw her again today, diving below the surface in search of food. She didn't have any trouble spearing fish but couldn't open her mouth to eat them.That breaks my heart too. I'm really really hoping SK gets another chance to help her, or she's able to pull the line off on her own..

There's still hope, but her prospects for survival appear dim at the moment.
