Picture Perfect ~ Discovery



Time once again for PICTURE PERFECT. This week our host is Gary The Gator, who has chosen the theme of 'DISCOVERY'.

 One of the greatest things in life, for me, is travel. And while it's sometimes nice to see old friends (in this respect I'm referring to places rather than people), the great thing about travel is visiting new places, discovering new wonders I've never seen before. And amongst the best things to discover in any place is the wildlife and (sometimes) even making friends with it.  Chipmunk 5

      These little guys live in the shadow of the sacred Atlatl Rock in the Valley Of Fire national park, Nevada.

    He looks cute certainly, but clearly tame too. Nice take, Mitch.

      Thanks Neil. I wouldn't go as far as to say 'tame'. Most of them would stay a safe distance away, just a couple of the bolder ones would could right up to us, but they certainly know tourists are good for a free snack!! LOL.

      They certainly are fun to watch. There is a native species of Red Squirrel here in the UK, but it is rarely seem these days.
