The Lord of the Rings is that to prevent the grass from growing too much on the set of the Shire, they didn't use weed whackers or any other type of machinery, but rather several flocks of sheep. 🐑 #WildlifeWednesday

It’s a fact!
Manatees are semi-social, but also somewhat solitary animals. Though they sometimes gather in small, informal groups, they have no leader or real herd structure. The strongest bonds are between mother and calf pairs. savethemanatee.org/facts #WildlifeWednesday

🦢 In early spring mated swans start their annual courtship by building nests on grassy hummocks or muskrat houses. 🪹

Last year's young start their own journey, but a lifelong mate won't be found until they are 2-7 years old. This will be their summer of fun & freedom! 🤟🫶✌️

Happy Wednesday! ❤️

#WildlifeWednesday a reminder that going out and enjoying all that "Mother Nature" has to offer is a great way to forget about the chaotic world and local news.

Virunga Twin Mountain Gorillas Boost Endangered Population Numbers | Happy Eco News Virunga twin mountain gorillas born in early 2026 represent the first recorded births of the year and a rare event for the critically endangered species in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Rangers in Virunga National Park recently discovered a rare set of mountain gorilla twins born into the Wilungula family. This is incredible, as twins account for only about 1% of gorilla births. happyeconews.com/virunga-twin...

Another look back in portrait from the Mule Deer buck I named Poker Face, with one huge ear sunlit and the other shaded, as he climbs up the forested hillside filling out the frame...which kinda has a little hidden yin/yang vibe going on. Am I right? ;~)

One day you'll look back
and realise how hard it was,
and just how well you did.

The patterns of a Griaffe's skin highlighting the blocks and lines of their patterned skin.

The skin of an elephant highlighted as a square image to show the geometric shape of it's ear and legs... It's smooth ear contrasts the deep grooves and wrinkles of it's leg and body.

The patterns of a Zebra's coat highlight the contrasting white and black stripes of their fur.

The sister series of my other post - Patterns of Africa

This series was taken more intentionally.

With the many gorgeous #Animal patterns of the #SouthAfrica #Wildlife I wanted to capture as many as I could, isolated in a way that only showed the cool […]

The rear of an Elephant, squared to the camera. The wrinkled layers of it's skin sag towards the centre creating a v shape pattern.

The rear of a Zebra, perfectly square to the camera. It's tail casts a small shadow while the black stripes of it's coat point inward.

April 1st really does make you feel like the butt-end of a joke...

When I was in #Africa, what started as a joke ended up making a goofy series images. I named them "The South End of Africa". A play on the fact that I was in #SouthAfrica as well and well […]

A graphic with a photo of a cottontail (camouflage), a stick bug (homotypism), and hoverfly (batesian mimicry) showcasing mimicry in wildlife species. Text reads: April Fools? Everyday for these species. They rely on mimicry to defend themselves.

#AprilFools isn’t just once a year for many animals living among us in the City—it’s a way of life. Lots of animals use their skills and appearance to fool others every day of the year!
Three most common forms of mimicry are camouflage, Batesian mimicry, and homotypism.
