I'm not sure what the correct name of this turtle is, however it is called mud turtle locally in Trinidad & Tobago. This was shot at the Emperor Valley Zoo.

This was the most intense smelling place. Stay too long and you can start to feel a little light headed...or nauseous. This place is ripe with Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Dioxide. But, the wonderful microorganisms that thrive on the Hydrogen Sulfide convert that gas into Sulfuric Acid, which in turn break down the rocks into the mud. <3 Biology
Nothing like a cooling mud bath on a hot day! Playing around with textures just to see what might happen. Shot in Samburu, Kenya.
The patterns in the cracked earth looked very similar to the patterns on an old stump. So I decided to merge the two.
Months of heavy rain results in lots of mud if you live in a place where there's no mains drainage or pavements.
I like to think that I live in the "mud capital" of the world.
This image was taken in Noakhali,Bangladesh. This image signifies the norms. They don't have gas and affording cylinder bottle of gas is also nearly impossible. So people of first world may not familiar with this kind of stove or even if they do they have done this in high school campaign. But this is not campaign, here people have no choice.Here it is life.
These are beautiful mud tiles left over time, nature’s flooring handiwork creating patterns and shapes all over.
The day the Olympic Torch came to Sunderland. Wettest summer ever. There is a path under there somewhere!
Just north of Mont St. Michel Abbey in France is another small island which at low tide you could walk to for fun. While I was there a large group of high school students were taking a guided walk. Very interesting and muddy. Looked like a lot of fun.
We were leaving Pilanesberg game Park when this mother and baby rhino charged out of the bush and across the road in front of the car. The must have been having a mud bath. I am pleased with this photo as the light was going and I just had time to aim through the window and press the shutter a few times.
We are now back home - feeling a little weary and will catch up with everyone over the next couple of days.

Alright the plan "was" to go to the m/c field this morning.
Obviously that didn't happen, but it could happen tomorrow.
I was up by 5:05AM but by 5:35AM I was back in bed.
There's a cold snap happening right now and even
the dogs wanted to stay in bed till it warms up.
So today's plan will be tomorrow's plan ;-)---
The scooter/sidecar is all ready to go.
Has fuel in it plus all the anti-Murphy
tools are neatly packed and ready
for use in case they're needed !
Thanks for stopping by ;-)
Thank You.

Anytime a layer of clay silt is deposited by a rainstorm in a depression in the ground, when the clay dries it shrinks and forms the puzzle pattern mud cracks. Like everything else in the world, mud cracks are studied by geologists. If the mud cracks are subsequently covered by another layer of silt and preserved and then through geological changes hardened into rock, they give us a record of the long ago drying event. They use mud cracks to determine the orientation of the original sedimentary beds that formed the cracks. The edges of the mud cracks curl upward and point out which direction was up in the original bed.
Here in Ottawa ontario Canada, we are lucky to have such an amazing place. Its a wildlife conservation area in the middle of the city. Its my place to take great shots and recharge within nature.

Last weekend we visted the Lost Gardens of Heligan, the most popular botanical gardens in the UK. To be frank, I was a bit disappointed, maybe because most of the foliage and flowers were gone at that time of the year and because we have been to some extraordinary botanical gardens throughout the year and the Lost Gardens were a bit underwhelming in comparison. At least there were very few people there so we had all the time in the world to explore.
They keep a few farm animals on site and we spend some time seeing what the pigs were doing. The photo is of big momma, the real mud maid - for those of you who already were at the Lost Gardens - pun intended :-)
After a little research about pig breeds I think this one is a British Lop - so called because of its long ears. It's an old pig breed - currently rarer than the Giant Panda (from Wikipedia)...

During our recent visit in Amboseli National Park, we encountered this hippo bathing in the muddy marshlands

I took this three years ago in Sidestep Canyon. We have a water leak in our yard, which is being repaired as I type this, so this photo is somewhat appropriate.

At exactly 5:59AM the dogs were being released
in The Mud Cobra Field. At exactly 6:59AM they
were being loaded-up so we can head 4 home.
As you can see here, it was a real quagmire.
Millions of Mr Murphy traps, some bigger
than others. But everyone of them was
a disaster just waiting to happen ;-0-
Getting all the way to the rest area was
a Rodeo Ride x 10 ! Twice I was knocked
out of the saddle, landing hard in the mud.
Today is Thursday August 22 2024.
So why is that so important you ask ?
Well yesterday, being Wednesday, is the
only day the dog clinic is closed. Safety
being high on the list for the dogs,
Wednesday is usually the day
we don't go 2 the m/c field.
Dogs were having "cabin fever" issues.
No rain this morning so we took a little
chance and did a little dance and here
we are, already talking about our wild
adventure splashing about in the Mud.
Getting out, I had to get off an on the
scooter, pushing while twisting the wick.
Once home it took longer to wash each dog !
They are all, Professional Mud Monsters ;-)-
