Did you take this photo? I'm damn jealous. Nice shot. :bowdown: I've only seen one in the wild and I didn't get photos, it happened too fast.

Cougar in the wild...

Yeah, I took it--year and a half ago on Thanksgiving. I think it was a once in a lifetime moment. For me, anyway.

Ok so some older shots that were taken over the past 4 years.

This was taken last year on the Hillsborough river. The pigs are common but most people do not get to see them. I was on a private guided trip with a small family. about 4 miles intot he trip these 2 adults along with the piglets came down tot he river and were messing about in a small bog about 30' from us. I was only using an olympus sw720 for this so no real zoom.

Just a water snake on the river sunning same olympus

These were in Costa Rica last time we were there

Howler monkey

Snake on trail near field. We got out of our land rover to take this shot eith a boa or python can't remember.

Lemmings? lemmers? something like that but I forgot so someone help me out I'm probably way off base LOL!

Several years ago in Baja we passed quite a few instances of a vulture sitting on top of a saguaro warming its wings in the morning sun. It was a beautiful iconic site. With all the Baja travellers here I scanned the thread hoping to see one posted. No luck...

Anyone have one to post?

 

[sami]

I googled these pics...

 

[viatierra]

Yes!
In one morning I'll bet we passed 20 different vultures perched ontop of whatever was along the side of road trying to soak up the morning sun.

Thanks!

One from the Lake Louise area... still lots to learn in Aperture so I played with the post processing.

Saw these guys on a wheeling trip to France a couple weeks ago.

This big guy was about 15 feet from the truck, and didnt seem to mind us being there.

We get wild boars in the Smoky Mts and I can tell you I wouldn't get near one, especially one with piglets. Nasty animals (and tearing-up the Smokies).

Nice shot!
