Animals, including Wildlife & Insects

Lovely pictures Karen

Animals, and birds, do often hide well. I don't know how he saw it but, years ago, when we were out in the countryside dad pointed out a pheasant hiding right by us in the hedgerow. All you could see was an eye peeking through a hole in the dried grass.

Cherry, the eggs would be hidden. They are covered with sticks and plant material for protection.

Most people don't live in Florida lol

I'd like to see more pictures!

Back in the Cypress Swamp there is and area that has some high ground and its a greeat place to get some nice pics of Whitetail Deer.

Besides the ones that are always in my backyard there are a few spots I know i can find them from. I only know this because of the amout of time I spend in the woods or kayaking.

Thank you.

Why commercially breeding?

Venison is very much on the menu for many here now. Most, if not all, larger supermarkets stock it.

I have had it occasionally. It's usually something I buy when it is reduced on short date. As I don't eat a lot of meat it's often what I fancy or on offer when I am getting it. I often prefer higher fat joints as they tend to be more flavoursome, which is a good reason not to eat too much lol

I don't eat venison much either, but my SO's mother sometimes gives us some from their hunts or they serve it. Usually it's just ground venison.

I have a photo somewhere of egrets coming into land at dawn.
With their wings spread wide and their legs hanging down underneath them I can quite easily understand how people may have mistaken them for angels.

Those are great pics, Cassie.


Can I do my old joke now?


Egrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention.
