When we were in the gallery that has a couple of prints of mine for sale, we were told that we should check out the basement, because there was lots of cool stuff down there. So we did. And we dorked out. This was one of the shots from down there.

- derived from a Tupi Indian name. Only spotted typically near freshwater below SC, all of FL, the bottom half of GA, and the coastal parts of AL, MS, LA, and TX (in the US). They also can be found in coastal Mexico, and Cuba. They swim and dive for food and perch on waters edge to dry, often with spread wings. Their call (when made-- these birds are said to be mostly silent vocally) sounds very much like a frog, which makes them blend in particularly well in their environment as a predator. They are partial migrants: not all within populations in a given area will migrate for winter. Some will stick it out where they are, and some will fly more south and return in the spring.

fok
lion's den, groote schuur estate, cape town
stone pines abound, mother nature hoping to reclaim by means of colourful creepers
lots of fok grafitti all over. from the disused water feature and follies in the east into the main lion chambers
the lion's den consist of a man made pit and moat in the front having hoped? to convince poor trapped lions that they're on top of the world, all for cecil john rhodes
in the center are five sandstone built main enclosures. two 4,5m squares on the sides and three 2,5m squares in between. quite interconnected or not, by weighted steel trap doors. a small hallway connects these to the three west facing public steel enclosures, all very airy.
inside the newly allocated shrine like chambers for some fortunate homeless people the almost pleasant smell of past excrement and urine permeates
hope
no gods

groote schuur zoo site
On the slopes just above the land presently occupied by the University of Cape Town, a cage like structure was built in 1897 to house lions, opposite the tarred access road. In 1930 this structure was demolished and replaced by a new lion enclosure which was know as Groote Schuur Zoo. It has been vacant since 1975. It is believed that Cecil John Rhodes had a fondness for the lion as ‘King of Beasts’ and symbolising the dreams and aspirations of the British Empire. A mixture of well-established indigenous and exotic trees that could be well beyond 60 years old surrounds this site.
They showed up this morning. I managed to wait for the battery to fully charge before I fired it up. WOW! That's a lot of Camera to get used to! Much heavier and much more complicated than the D70. I have borrowed the D200 a bit so I had some idea but it's still quite a handfull! I'll be using that Dyna-Flex Gyro-Exerciser in the top left corner to build up my wrist for holding this beast.
