Pretty cute actually.
Outstanding! And lots of fun. Thank you!
Thank you for the fun. :)
“Juggling Pelican” is my overall favorite. Can just hear the audience squawking, “Miss, miss, miss!” Funny and beautifully photographed.
Cub hugging mom, so sweet.
Ground squirrel (?) with pretty flower, cute!
Nature is great to watch. Like bears. They do funny stuff one minute but will rip your face off the next. 😎🕺
Bear hug.
I liked the elk peeking around the tree trunk. :-)
That was my favorite too.
Amazing how the photographer is so talented and dedicated to their art to capture a moment in time that defines the beauty of life
Nice way to start a Sunday morning! Thanks for posting. The Bear Hug is my fave, followed by the tail-attacking lion cub...
What a nice way to start the morning before church, a beaeutiful tribute to Nature and the Glory of God.
“Peekaboo!” was my first thought on that one. :D
