Great Egret Launch
Leaving Merritt Island and staying with some local fare folks. IMHO these are one of the most beautiful and elegant species we have here. It’s Monday so have a great day and a great week, and thanks for the visit.

Sphinx cats
Doing what cats do best. We took them out for a walk and they finally settled into this position.
The only change that was done is a crop on the left hand side to remove a piece of wood that was sticking out.
Taken April 3rd, 2009 on Denman Island, BC, Canada.

Petrified wood 1
I found this piece of petrified wood on Denman Island when I was very young. Its still one of my favourite fossils. :)
Still my favourite fossil/rock I own. I asked a palaeontologist about it and he noticed a tunnel through the wood (as seen here) as well as confirming it was petrified wood.
