    Good pics, Ceci. That's my favorite shot of Halo--I've seen it before and I love it! Nice to read all the stories connected with them also.

    Thanks Lauren. It's nice to have built in (cheap) models - will work for treats rolleyes1.gif

    These two are barn kittens at a friend's place - couldn't resist them one chilly day last November.

    Hi, I'm just moving in to SmugMug (first day or so!) so these are taken from some of the 2009 galleries I've uploaded so far... They are probably representative of any I'd pick out of the rest of 2009 though!

    First one is a cow at Sherwood Forest Farm Park - An English Longhorn to be exact. It's not technically great, but I was happy to get the tongue like that!

    A very nice llama at White Post Farm Park...

    Welcome to DGrin, public! Glad to see some of your work here, and I look forward to more of it. Those shots are hilarious--the cow is my favorite! You did quite a job getting those angles.

    Fun times at the Little Rock Zoo!

    #1-we walked all around the bald eagle enclosure and couldn't find any birds. As we turned to walk back, we saw them on the ground under a group of shrubs... As luck would have it, we could walk to where they were and lean right over. They had their backs to us, so my husband thought it would be "fun" to shake the branch above my head. You could see them looking for whatever tasty morsel was making that branch move!!!

    #3-After I downloaded this, I couldn't figure out what was on his ear. Pulled it up on the 50" tv and it's seven (yes, 7) flies!!!!
