true. even dull subjects can turn into interesting ones - which proves there is no dull subject at all.
although i can see how all these post-processing options today are something that can drive old school purists mad. ;)
here is a photo that really touched me:
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3319/3449808864_1ece0b0ed9.jpg)
my daughter decided to offer flowers instead of food -- one little monkey loved the game very much... he'd eagerly reach for each chamomile blossom, chewing on the first and then sniffing the rest.
as i left the zoo, i remembered that, sometimes they cage up the wrong primates.say no more.

i went to see my little friends today, after a couple of months break. there were three new little guys - completely crazy little furballs. :)
just really hard to take pics of them - they were like little orange-brown balls of mercury. they might stop to pose for you but only for a 0,00000001 of a second - so be quick!
one of them kept speeding towards me every now and then and jumping up and grabbing my knee - and then it was speeding back where it came from as fast as it could. repeat and fade. :)

yeah they did. :-D and i didn't even have any food/any treats to give them, and yet they kept coming to see me all the time. first they came sniffing my foots and then they started this "jump and grab the knee!" thing that went on and on, practically until i left. :D
this is the only pic i got from it though:
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3551/3820459561_b249d44a80_m.jpg)
because it's really difficult to take pics of them. even when you keep your camera on widest angle possible they are just SO fast that they were long gone when you're still trying to find the focus :P
it was just really sweet somehow, to feel their little paws on one's knee/climbing one's leg :) (even though they had pretty sharp nails!).
but sure, these were full-blood city squirrels. the wild ones here do exactly what you described, run and hide when they see humans.
these were really small squirrels, obviously this year's pups. i just hope they are a bit more cautious when they run into a dog or a fox.

around here the seagulls have gotten really arrogant, often stealing food directly from people's hands. they just dive in from the sky and grab the food if you're not watching.
i think there are even warning signs for this in some places.

I very rarely see city squirrels at all, and only in residential areas. And as soon as they see you, they go up a tree!
Never seen any crazy seagulls either. Animals around here must be boring. :lol:

i thought it was pretty funny too. :-D
our local zoo is located on an island and since peafozws aren't really keen on flying across open water, they can roam the island freely - so youcan basically see peacocks and peahens everywhere in the zoo. they have these signs on a couple of bigger lawns, and they are supposed to tell people that it's not illegal to go picking any fallen peacock features and take them home (that's because of the feathers can always carry some germs and either people and especially their pets at home might get sick).
and as this peacock was standing next to the sign, it almost looked like it was a sort of traffic sign saying "no peacock feathers beyond this point!".
i found it pretty funny. :lol:
yes, lots of tea (with honey) has been consumed. ;)

During the hectic days of the olympics the nature is still raging wild. Here´s a race with the devil containing a hunter, the peregrine and the hunted, the blackbird, soon to be dead.
nice capture. that's really hard to catch with the camera, that hawk is seriously fast.
congrats for a nice pic!
we're have record breaking amounts of snow and it still keep snowing more.

I realise that not all of You will jump high of joy when You´re forced to a picture of a bird but I just have to share this rather nice shot of two long eared owls, taken earlier today, here in Uppsala. There were eight of them (I just saw six of them) but I atleast captured two of them in this shot. Magnificient birds! Enjoy!
that's a nice one.
Snatch! The worst type of tenant for a birds hostel.
Sometimes an osprey just feels the need to do some fishing. Bad luck for the fish though...

Two of my absolute favorites are these two. The croc sign is from India and the church sign is from some place.

Nice view but I didn´t see any birds. But I guess that there can be some of them from time to time.

i see it. :)
looks like we have the same kind of "show" to watch.
from my window, about a week ago (http://www.flickr.com/photos/36543214@N07/4598237563/#).
wood pigeons have a nest right in the lime tree right outside my balcony/window. i've been following the hatching for some time now, and yesterday i noticed there's a new family member:

what a sweet ugly duckling :P
Nice picture JB :smth023 Yeah same "show" to watch :) I really like to watch all off my free animals in the garden. We have again our frog with a lot of noise and also our bat is back :)
About the bird, we have some extra to watch ... above the birds head there is a security camera and we can chance the direction to see directly in the nest :) and with recording ... so that means I can see how the 5 eggs turns in litlle birds ... ;)

i don't have a garden, i wish i would :( but last year i had a squirrel family in that same tree, this year the pigeons. :)
and gulls live on the roof right above me, they can be pretty noisy sometimes but i like them.

i saw an absolutely perfect rainbow today, really beautiful! :shock::

the "double ring" can be seen pretty well in the photo, although it was still much brighter in real life. and at its best it was actually a triple rainbow, there was also a smaller ring under/inside the main ring. it was clearly visible for a while but hard to capture in a photo.
Ooh that is a very beautiful rainbow, thanks for sharing :D
