What you see is what you get……. birds, animals, and all sorts of things, but remember; Work for a cause, not for applause. Live life to express, not to impress. Don't strive to make your presence noticed, just make your absence felt. .
Love your philosophic moods! Thank you for taking such superb pictures of a creature that lands on my front lawn in flocks…you capture the photo I wish I could take myself. 🙂
Speaking of Rhinos, there is a series of pictures circulating Facebook showing a baby rhino who got separated from his mother during a tsunami and it found a tortoise over hundred years old, which he then adopted as his new best friend. Everywhere the tortoise would go, the rhino went with him.
Ooops, my mistake, it was a hippo and a tortoise, not a rhino. But I have seen pictures of egrets on the backs of rhinos, didn’t know they did antelope, too.
Nothing wrong at all… just trying to be clever and wanted to write my own words of wisdom… but couldn’t come up with any so I borrowed these… life is all good…
The last photo is beautiful. Your words are captivating.
Thank you…
Beautiful photos and beautiful words. 🙂
Thanks Inga
The bird is almost as smart as you Love.
Maybe smarter…
Great words, and photos. These are particularly good shots, especially the last one. You definitely got the all important eye razor sharp here.
Thanks Brian… it was actually one of my best captures of this particular bird…
I love your words of wisdom!
Thanks Julie…
I’m thinking the Bulldog should wax philosophical more often. It works wondering with your beautiful images. 🙂
Thank you LuAnn… maybe something new that followers don’t get bored…
Stunning shots bulldog. Love it. 😀 *hugs*

Thanks Mrs.P. they are actually an interesting bird to capture… I love it when they’re strolling along with a Rhino or an antelope…

It’s interesting to note that neither creature is alarmed by the other, they all seem to have a gentle tranquility amongst each other.
Gorgeous birds; profound words, my friend. Have a spectacular weekend!
Thanks Gina… and you have a blessed one as well…
I loved these! Deep and beautiful: perfect post. Have a nice weekend 🙂

Did a brilliant job, well done Egret!
Thanks Ute…
Wise egrets! Except, of course, one cannot know for sure that the intellect loses the capacity to grow after death …
Hmmm good point Col.. thanks…

I hope it is just a passing thing and that nothing terribly wrong is going on. The egret had good words and a great profile 😉 Take care
