[nan]

all are predators... in the chain

magnificent montages... except one

well done

[Flutterby]

That's a lot of predators!

[Lisbeth]

Hey, where is my price?

Lovely editing of great photos

Are you making a book of your trips like Nan ( and maybe also Mel ) does?

[Richprins]

This is so very clever and such hard work, Ex! Much appreciated indeed!

At a loss for words, and yes, you must do a book!

[Mel]

Too clever for me... I totally omitted the raptors as predators

But that doesn't change the fact that I'm totally in awe of your sightings and photos!
So many interesting encounters - and especially with the raptor predators

Oh, and of course your beloved creepy crawlies... I appreciate your captures, really do...
but so far I haven't put up the same enthusiasm for chasing them and managing such
brilliant shots that you have

Still - every time you post them, it keeps nagging at me that I'm not totally applying
myself yet. Keep going

Which one? The creepy crawlies

Many more of those to come....

Hey, where is my price?

Sis, you are "priceless" in my book.

The prize will be awarded at the END of the quiz to whomever has the highest score

Lovely editing of great photos

Are you making a book of your trips like Nan ( and maybe also Mel ) does?

Yes, I make one after every trip. Many of these entries are from that, some not.

Will post some raptor pics especially for you next.

I just find them so intriguing - their forms, colors, lives, ability to communicate without "language", their extraordinary fetes in order just to survive...okay, now I'm coming off as kookier than a "crazy cat lady", so will end there.

Still - every time you post them, it keeps nagging at me that I'm not totally applying
myself yet. Keep going

Thanks Flutts and Rp for the encouragement MUCH appreciated
