My old roommate in college had a chinchilla named "Milo", so I was very excited about the prospects of seeing one in the wild. Our sharp-eyed guide Javier spotted one at about 14,500 feet near Salkantay Pass. He was just catching a little late morning sun! Sadly, this species of chinchilla (Chinchilla chinchilla, formerly Chinchilla brevicaudata), is listed as critically endangered by the IUCN and is facing extinction. It is tough out there. The domestic kind are more closely related to their cousins, Chinchilla lanigera, which have longer tails and ears.

Swirl is a colt from our local wild horse band. He got booted out by the lead stallion a few months ago. The poor boy got so lonely, he tried to break down a fence to get to a domestic mare! He wanted a family too. Poor Swirl, the humans called the authorities and reported him as a nuisance horse. He was removed from his wild home & taken to the mustang prison. (BLM's Palomino Valley Corrals ) I saw him in the corrals behind the mares & foals from Triple B on Saturday.
Now trying to figure out how to rescue Swirl. He is our little home boy! <3 I got this image of him during winter.
Daucus carota (known as Wild Carrot or Queen Anne's Lace) is a rather ordinary-looking umbellifer until its flowers turn into spiny seedheads, curling inwards to form a cup shape. Viewed from above, they seem to hover in mid air. Near the car park at RSPB Loch Lomond.
Wild Columbine is in full bloom in my native garden. It's a mid-late Spring bloomer that attracts hummingbirds. It does well in woodlands or sunny prairies.
If you're adding a native garden or looking for plants to add to your garden, I would highly recommend this one.

They live by a small pond, in a park, here in Warsaw.
I visit them sometimes, and see them every time.

Their mane runs along the nape of their neck is stiff and stands upright. Their lower legs have horizontal stripes of black or dark brown like a zebra, and the edges of their ears are trimmed in darker fur.

Not too far from the Monmouth Covent Garden. Reasons you should go here instead:
- They make much better coffee than Monmouth
- It is cheaper
- It is quiet. Not overrun by tourists and hipsters (yet)
- It is cute. There's a little wooden nook to sit and drink.
As an Australian, I have only seen Dingos (Native Australian Dog) in their natural habitat maybe 7 or 8 times throughout my life.
On this occasion, we spotted two together but the lead Dingo wasn't sticking around to pose for a photo. I did try to photograph from inside the car however wasn't having much luck so I very quietly and slowly got out the car, switched lenses and using the bonnet (hood) as a stable platform squeezed off a few frames.
Is it perfect, no it's not but both my wife and I feel pretty fortunate to see not one but two in their natural habitat.
There are plenty of Australians that have only seen a dingo, and other native Australian animals in a zoo!

I usually struggle to find interesting lighting angles with flowers, but the back-lighting from the early morning sun was a no-brainer here.

Slow roasted wild boar from Marin County, pickled local abalone mushrooms, and green garlic herb pistou. The vegetables were all foraged around the Bay Area, and the tiny chunk of wild boar was from northern Marin. I don't think the boar added much, but the pistou was tomatoey and delicious.
"Wild Fire" is a statue by local Ocala artist Nancy Ihasz done for the 10th anniversary of "Horse Fever," a public arts display to raise money for the Marion Cultural Alliance. This anniversary saw 27 new horse statues created and painted by local artists, each sponsored by local businesses, to be displayed for several months before being auctioned off at a later date.
