For an Eastern blue tongue this is a little on the small size - in a year or two it should grow to 30cm. For skinks they’re very large - we also get the tiny darting ones that are about 5cm long, but blue tongues are at the upper end of size in the skink family.
Well that’s just not cricket!
Oh no. We don’t have these birds in South América. This is a Bananaquit, one member of the posse that visit the feeder everyday.
Every time I ask you what a particular bird is you tell me it’s a Bananaquit. You’d think I’d learn?
Bananaquit. Just look at it
I wish I could have a feeder with fruits or seeds to bring out different birds. But It would only sound like an invitation to the pigeons.
Hmmm. I’m pretty sure it’s a snipe.
Only this Guy can find a Snipe.
Maybe this one too.
Call the buff kangaroo!
I have no Idea. I think It is enough for me.
I finally recognized it this time, but sometimes the lighting makes them look like totally different birds. I’ve even seen pictures of the same bird here (I think) and thought it was two different species.
Ever since I saw a photo of a mantis that had caught and was eating a hummingbird, I stay away from them. The way they turn their head to look at you… Shudder
ETA Zorak is cute, though
Is it? Or are you its human?
Lovely detail on the leg!
This was great! Also, I’ve yet to meet a kitteh able to resist the lure of humans wearing dark clothing. It’s like they see a blank canvas on which their fur must be deposited in creative ways…
