Wonderful variety of neat stuff.
I liked them all but I really like the picture of the bird hanging on to the branch that has another bird on it.
Ricko: Thanks!
Mary K: I wonder if the big bird realized he was giving a free ride to the small bird perching on the branch.....
Maybe they were referring to the Coalition to Liberate Itinerant Tree-dwellers? It's an offshoot of Liberate Apes Before Imprisoning Apes.
No relation to the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. (That last one is real.)
I doubt they're that clever. And yes, we all love the M.I.L.F.
A very interesting round-up of images, as always!
Thanks! I've got plenty more for future posts.
beautiful!
