    Looks like the bison on the left is pointing with his hoof.

    They all got up and moved out of the way. They didn't look happy about it though.

    duuuuude! is that a Possum? That's gross!

    Me and my GF once saw a small snake attacking a small rat at O-Neil. It was pretty sick, it was like those animal channel shows live!

    Gray - what is that bottom bird? Had one in my backyard pool for about 20 minutes but hubby had the camera (my small camera was lost in some foreign country :?:)

    Hard to see, took pic with iPhone - he's on the rocks of the spa. He was so pretty.
