You have no doubt heard of snow geese. These are the much more elusive snow ducks.

Oh my gosh, these are just wonderful, I love the geese in the sunset. This is the only one I could find right now, we were at a state park, the deer are very tame, it was the highlight of my weekend, could of had a 300. fine if they caught me feeding her banana!  |

| Wonderful shots!! |
|
| Nice stuff! Thanks. |
|
| Living in Minnesota, I never see armadillos. What a bizzare looking creature. A face only a mother could love. Thanks for sharing. Ron |

| Ron- You were able to capture the notoriously shy snow duck with your camera. I can't understand why the Wily Winter Armadillo of the Great North has managed to elude you - they should be easy to track in all that snow you get! |

| Wow--who knew so many of you walk on the wild side!! Great pictures, everyone. I'm so glad I don't have to groom that ram......
This one's a little blurry. But I was probably a little shaky.

| Wily Winter Armadillo? They probably den up with all those Snow Snakes we have around here. One more.

| Beautiful pictures, everyone! |
|
| WOW! Those are nice konrad....Cedar Waxwings are cool birds. |
|
| What a sweet face, Konrad!! (The deer, not yours.) :-) And those are wonderful shots of the Waxwings. I didn't take this pic--wish I could say I've been this close to a whale. It was taken this week by a friend on a whale watching trip. Couldn't resist posting it here, considering the theme. I love it.

|
| I'm very late to the party. :) I am so glad to be a part of this forum and get to see all these wonderful photographs. Thank you! Here are some photos of some "not so wild"life.
|
|
| pfmastin, what is that last one you posted? A bird version of Medusa? That grasshopper is so cool. Thank you all for the fantastic pictures this week. Ron |
|
| Isn't it a great character, ronf? Unfortunately, I don't know what it is. The last two bird photos were taken at the Sylvan Heights Waterfowl Park in Scotland Neck, NC. I looked on the website but didn't have any luck identifying the bird with the hairdo and I didn't label it at the time. |

| I think the strange black feathered bird with the crest is a curassow. Kate |

| I should have added that the bird identification is courtesy of MaNature, our bird/snake/critter ID expert on the Florida Gardening forum. She's our 'go to' person for these questions and she always gets it! Thanks Marcia! Kate |
