'Nature Magazine' - Best Fauna Photographs for 2007-2008


Got the bit between my teeth with nature photographs - so I thought I should to a fauna post to go with the flora and landscape one.















The last photograph should always be a super cute one, don't you think ?!

    Always love to see photos and documentaries of Cheetahs (first pic)
    And I can't help but wonder what happened with that 2nd pic. Don't think that fish is going to eat the camera guy ... right? lol

    5th pic - now why do I think of that cartoon movie "Nemo" when I see that? lol

    I could go on.
    But wanted to say "cool job" to ya Nick for those nature pics.

    hey greg.

    i'm a bit cheetah (and leopard) addicted myself.

    reckon the guy in #2 is dins, with the little fish as entrees - that's one hungry gropper if i'm any judge.

    and with #5 - it's the cutsy twinkle in the eye that captain nemo's him! had a similar idea.

    my fav is the monkey in the tree vainly trying to catch some of those yummy bees, just out of his reach! well, each to his own i say!

    It was the two icy monkeys I loved best - a bit like me and my bf at the moment. Roll on summer, and the thaw!

    Another great post, Nick! I knew it, you're always into this "animal" thing. :-)

    hey frank

    thanks

    the more animal the better - well, sometimes ... most of the time ... .

    wanna do something on Bonobos - as i mentioned in another comment here, they resolve all social tension sexually - a good lesson for us! LOL

    hey frank

    thanks very much for linking me - i've done the same for you

    BTW loved your blog - particularly how you can go thru to the videos of guys pictured

    PS - the only issue with the bonobo way of solving social tension is when the tension occurs between, shall we say, physically incompatible!

    best
