This afternoon my husband found a tortoise in the garden. I had never seen a tortoise like this before. I could only guess that it was an exotic species someone had bought as a pet. The bulbs are up but the sun is obscured by a thick grey blan.

On April 15, 2015. These are some more photos from the local pond. The birds here are excellent subjects if you intend to practice your photography. People tend to feed them, so they have very little fear of humans and often get close to people. Which can be a problem if you happen to have a slight fear of geese. They do have those saw toothed beaks and a somewhat threatening attitude.

Documenting nature in the Amazon through photographs and sketches. In the Rio Negro before, but some weeks ago we went on a trip specifically to see dolphins. It was great, they would just swim around us. Yes, they were looking for the fish, but they were free to come and go. It was a very nice experience to see them so close. Balbina and the blue-headed parrots. There is another view of the tree trunks on that post. Balbina, Presidente Figueiredo, Amazonas.

A Peruvian woman gets ready to prepare fresh guinea pig for her guests us! After humanely euthanizing the animal, she removes the hair and the guts, then places it in the frying pan on her wood-fired stove to cook. Divided among about 16 people, there is not much more than a mouthful of prepared guinea pig to taste, but it proves to be quite mild just like chicken! Wild guinea pig from lake Titicaca.

A Photo A Day For A Year. Alas, it looks like I have used 3. It seems I cannot add any more of my photographs to Camera Obscure without purchasing a Space Upgrade from WordPress.

Thank you for visiting, please feel free to stay awhile and look around. Last weekend my parents an.

Tales of a Truck Driving Photographer. Some Kudu and Wilderbeast action or inaction for today. Every time I see a giraffe I think Toys are Us, anyone else? October 9, 2016. More animal pics this week and we will start off with some gazelles.

Uncovering the Wonders of Nature in Cow Bay Nova Scotia. The Fragility of Small Things. August 17, 2017 by flandrumhill. How do small things make you feel? Do you sense their vulnerability and seek to protect them? Or does their smallness seem irritating and invasive, as they tug you out of your comfort zone? Salamander seeking a dark place to hide. Maritime garter snake crossing a road. Sometimes they manage fine without our intervention. Shrew found dead on gravel road.
