while i was up at my cottage two summers ago i saw a a hawk catch a chipmunk and then have a ten minute in sky battle. in the end the hawk dropped it into the water and came back to get it when the crow was gone.

And here is the same humpback whale I posted earlier. This picture was shot a few minutes before the whale swam over to the other boat. The whale was close enough to touch.

Mikey I think a full wax job is in order first!

 

[balapickerel]

i'm surprised that there aren't as many pictures yet, i'm really surprised nobody has posted a picture of a fish yet.

and the whale doesn't count as a fish.

Now that I have finally gone through this thread, I am REALLY intrigued to know this whole joke about mikeymikey posting nude or w/e??

this photo i am uploading, i did not take it, my aunt n uncle did in Alaska. This is a VARY shot, it is also VARY RARE to see it. I believe its called preaching, or berching? if anyone knows.
