Here's my rescued kitten called Ablette, not a kitten that fits in the palm of my hand anymore I'm afraid :

I'll ask some mid to high res pics to my father, he's an expert on butterflies and moths. He mainly focuses on endemic species in France, but for butterflies he photographed hundreds of different varieties !

I have many other pictures of Ablette, weirdly she's often in a confined space... I've created more than 10 spots for her in the house, but sleeping on top of my new leather chair suits her better apparently :smirk
:respect In the collection :respect : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

You are so lucky , I might see a suicidal squirrel . I would love to live with more wildlife diversity. We have are first Wren nesting in one of our houses today . I got a Robin last few days determined to built a nest on vapor light above door going into the garage. Mr. Robin will have to find another spot . ;) Dan

Some pretty cool critters, fellas!

Here’s one of our Eastern Water Dragons. This is one is a large male at the Naval Base I used to work at on Sydney Harbour.

We used to feed them and consequently they got rather tame. :smlling-eyes
