Menagerie

With my cheapo little point and shoot camera, over the years, I've managed to collect a menagerie of wildlife and zoo animals. Of course, the wild ones are harder to get close to. Mrs. T. also likes wild subjects but then she chases them down....:)
My only manatee shot. 
 
Baron and I got in an eerie stare down with this wild canine.  Large coyote?
 
Instead of watching TV in the evening we play peek a boo with our neighbors "kids."

  6. I love your menagerie. Now if you could just build a snowmobile large enough for two each, you will all survive the Great Snowfall of 2014!

  7. Anything you can do outdoors is better than watching TV.

  9. I really like the different photos. Your neighbor's kids look like they have a high fence to keep them adults from jumping.

  12. I agree with everyone else that the photo of the bear at the picnic table is priceless. There are several great ones here. Than one underwater thingy is awesome. I'm glad Mrs. T chases them down.

  13. I love all the photographs but I'm with the majority on the bear at the picnic table. Almost as if he is saying, "Isn't someone going to take my order soon?"

  23. The bear cracked me up but then so did the mooching donkeys. Elephants always grab my heart. Wonderful selection TB and Mrs TB.

  25. Fun photos! I cruised past the bear, and then my brain said, "Wait! What?" and I had to go back. It would make a great multi-purpose greeting card.

  27. Wow! You really do have an incredible variety. My favorite right now is the buffalo, but only because I've been trying so hard to get a good buffalo picture.

  28. Great shots! Always keep a camera ready!
    Love the snow shots, too, as long as they are at YOUR place, not mine. You could have shared some of that with Alaska where a lot of the Iditarod was run over bare ground.

  29. The bear seems to be saying "when does the picnic start?"
