Image #6 This lovely couple spent the night in one of the shelters, they were asleep when I stumbled up on them, they soon opened their eyes though. I don't know what type of owls they are.

Image #10 White/Yellow Salmon I took this one in one of the creeks, I was waiting for the platypus to surface, it eventual did but I didn't get a good shot at it. I think these guys escaped from a nearby Salmon farm.

    hard to reply when:
    1- you don't number your photos:D
    2- don't identify what we are looking atne_nau.gifdunno......ie: first pic is a 'roo......but which type is it and how many different 'ROO's are there......

    They are well done but I still like to know what I am studying:D:D

    At least you did put a nice large space between them.

    remeber over 99% of Dgrin is americans and have no cluse to the many species on Tassie land....................

    The post I'm seeing is potted with question marks . Have you got a number of broken links or protected images?

    You're more likely to get some responses if it looks like you have taken some care with your post in the first place! :D

    Something wrong with the links. I can't see the images. Password protected images maybe?

    In a number of the images you are looking down on the animals. As with photographing children and pets etc, the result with small animals is usually better when you shoot them from down at their level. nod.gif
