August project....animals

I think about project titles all month and its still a last second decision...usually with not much of a crative insight but all you great people are so great being creative with any subject so this month we get ANIMALS.
That way the nature and wildlife people can get into it as well as the pet owners, and farmers or anyone that sees any kind of animal whether it walks, swims, flys, or crawls.

Happy Shooting!

Great idea - a roadkill thread !
Well you didn't say they had to be alive did you ?

GREAT IDEA!!! Thanks Frog!!!!

The "Cat of many colors"[/QUOTE]

What beautiful colors!! Is she/he yours?

Liz

No, this cat was at a B&B we stayed at. I was walking around taking pictures and it followed me for a 1/2 hour and then tried to get in my car.

Our little princess (that's what the neighbour calls her) Tess having my breakfast left-overs.
No she's not spoilt, she thinks it is her right ... and the pillow is hers too.

Trying to escape, obviously!

I think I've posted this one before, but I like it, so here ya go. Not really a great picture, I was checking out a lens that turned out to be..... unsatisfactory. (Tamron 200-500.)

When I first posted it on FB I captioned it "My dog wandering in a field." Thing is, it wasn't a field, it was my back yard in late February. Not being a native Floridian, I sort of refuse to do yard work before March.....

He is a papillon, his name is "Gizmo."
