In Memory Of Steve Irwin...
Found this baby gecko in the kitchen sink this evening. It was on the side which houses the garbage disposal. I covered the disposal hole with a cup and chased it around for a minute or two before I was able to finally grab the little critter.
Haven't been feelin' too spunky of late, so I was just gonna let it go somewhere safer than where it was found.
Since I don't see baby geckos too often, I decided I'd shoot it before I let it go.
After I slowly wandered around the house gathering up my camera gear and tripod, then went through the process of setting everything up, I let loose of the "slight" grip I had on it in order to get it into position to be shot.
As I slowly released pressure, it became quite clear he wasn't going anywhere. He didn't move at all. Even when I tried to scoot him off my finger, he just looked up at me and laid there...Legs splayed and motionless.
I was horrified thinking I had accidentally turned it into a little quadriplegic...And where on Earth was I gonna find an electric wheel chair small enough?!
After I dropped a little water on his head, he slowly began to normalize. I guess my "slight" grip crushed the wind outta the little fella.
My new problem was I couldn't get him off me. I think he thought I was his mother. I'm not sure how he could have thought that since I wasn't wearin' a shirt at the time.
Anyway, I took advantage of him calling my hand home and took a number of photos. Most of 'em turned out pretty well. He was a great poser and wasn't frightened at all by the flash.
I'll post some others at a later date, when I get back to working order. That'll be the same time I'll be checkin' out what y'all have shot since I've been gone...
You can get a better view of him here.

Laugh
I know it isn't the best picture, but sometimes it is the odd ones that get you. This one came up on screen and I had a much needed laugh. Don't ask what sort of bird it is, I don't know. So, this is for everyone who needs or wants a laugh.
Identified as a Helmeted Guineafowl, thanks Callie

It seems that he is laughing by his own reflection in the window. I should have cleaned the window before it, though...-_-;

Fabuloso Sleeps on My Books
Fabuloso loves science fiction, especially to sleep on. Notice his beloved peppermint drop. (By the way, he sleeps with his eyes open)

Do they have doggy paddles for this?

There's a story behind this picture taken by my dad:
When Maggie was a puppy, I thought since she was a retriever that I had finally found a swimming buddy to swim with out in the bay.
Well I was wrong.
For the longest time we had to throw her in the water cause she didn't want to go in. Eventually, I developed another method this time putting her in the kayak with me while I paddled around on the bay...
8 years later, I can't get her out of the kayak. If she so much as sees it she tries to jump in it even when it's on dry land. If it's in the water and she can touch bottom, forget about it she just jumps in not caring whether or not she flips you over.
She's insane really. She hops in the boat and I'm expected to pattle her around like she's queen of the Amazon or something.
Here she wouldn't get out.
