What a wonderful spot, filled with flora and fauna I’ve never seen. That said, I’m quite taken with the rooster. It brought to mind a song about roosters I keep around to listen to at those times when I just need something silly to make me laugh!
What a wonderful collection of images. The rooster on the very green lawn is such a perfect image that it’s almost difficult to believe it’s for real! The spider resembles a beautiful flower! And all is followed by a pictorial pun of the rear end – of the collection! 🙂
A fine set. The elk is in the top right of the picture
