I had a little letter full of paper
Inky scratches everywhere
Always looking, looking for a paradise island
Help me find it everywhere

(Ducks On A Pond)

A few of my favourites from my trip to Oz last year. I have upped the contrast and sharpened them a bit, not bad for a point and shoot camera though I thought.








You can see more on my Flickr page.

There are 150 bears aprox each painted by an artist representing their country. They were presented for the 1st time in Berlin 2002 and then - had travelled to different cities around world.

I loved them! there are some art works that are totally awesome! - and others.... well... are not that good =P

Here's a picture of the leader cow calling off the attack against me. She was leading a squad of storm cows, and they were all running towards me. She stopped, turned around and went: "Moooooooh!" and the other cows stopped. I guess she found out that I was no threat to them after all. Camera: Samsung S1050. Click the picture for full view.

Pigeons




Crow

About once a month the wife and I get out of town for a couple of days. I recommend it to everyone. No phones, no computer, no TV or radio. Just us & nature. It's refreshing and quiets the mind. It allows you the opportunity to self reflect and to put life into perspective. It also give you the chance to witness natures beauty and the reality of the wild.

This time around, we rented a cabin just outside of Quitman, TX for our "get away". I just wanted to share a few pictures with you all. They are too beautiful to not.

Do you see the toad in this picture:













OK, so this picture is grainy, but fun nonetheless



People think of Texas and they think desert, but here is some good old East Texas River bottom



This is a nice series I captured of Egrets moving in on a roost for the evening







More River Bottom



Welcome to the Jungle







I can't believe I got this close to this goose



I would like to close with a couple of quotes from the Father of Wildlife Conservation, Aldo Leopolde (as recommended reading, I would suggest his book titled A Sand County Almanac)

"We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect."

"Harmony with land is like harmony with a friend; you cannot cherish his right hand
and chop off his left."

I hope you all enjoyed, I know the wife and I sure did.
